Usually what happens is the site I was using for free goes over to a pay format.  This happened with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.acuityscheduling.com\/\">Acuity<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.genbook.com\/\">Genbook<\/a>.  Last year I used <a href=\"http:\/\/checkappointments.com\/\">Check Appointments<\/a> but that got blocked by our firewall this year for some reason.  So I searched again for a new one, and I&#8217;m sharing what I found with you because you might like to set up an online sign up sheet for parent conferences.  I use <a href=\"http:\/\/youcanbook.me\">YouCanBookMe<\/a> for teachers to sign up to use the COWs (Computers On Wheels).  It works great and integrates perfectly with Google calendar (you can see an example <a href=\"http:\/\/teachers.henrico.k12.va.us\/staffdev\/clough_d\/COW\/\">here<\/a>).  You might like to try it for parent conferences, but I can&#8217;t use it for my lessons since it uses set time slots.  I need flexible time slots so teachers can sign up for 30-, 45-, or 60-minute lessons.  I thought I found a solution with <a href=\"http:\/\/tungle.me\">TungleMe<\/a>, which also works well with Google Calendar, but that was a bit too complicated.  I finally settled on <a href=\"http:\/\/setmore.com\">SetMore<\/a>.  It&#8217;s simple, it allows for flexible scheduling, and it&#8217;s free.  The only downside is it doesn&#8217;t integrate with Google Calendar. But I like it.  So to sign up for lessons with me, please use <a href=\"http:\/\/dclough.setmore.com\/\">this link<\/a> or you can just go to <a href=\"http:\/\/teachers.henrico.k12.va.us\/staffdev\/clough_d\/ITRT\/Welcome.html\">my homepage<\/a> and click the &#8220;book now&#8221; button.  Thanks, and I am looking forward to another great year of working with you and your students!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s the start of a new school year, and each year I need to find a new way for teachers to sign up for lessons with me.
