It's often said that necessity is the mother of invention, and that's certainly the case for Tim Bowman, founder of Class Creator. As part of its mission to continuously drive innovation in education, Sentral teamed up with Tim to create Class Builder; a software program that builds classes for schools using some clever technology that saves time, and reduces hassle and conflict. But it's the story behind the product that makes it so powerful. Over a decade in classrooms has given Tim unique insight into what makes a good class and how to use technology to keep improving the class building process. It wasn't always a straightforward run for Tim, and he certainly saw his fair share of challenging classroom situations. I started by asking Tim to share a few of those moments that eventually led him to create a product that now helps teachers manage hundreds of thousands of students.
