To be honest, I always felt personally being responsible for knowing when your homework is due was a good life lesson...I guess we will see in the near future if it really was that important, but my best guess is that we are going to have more and more people that forget to do things because they don't have an online program telling them that it is due (I'm talking once they get legitimate jobs that carry responsibility).
Come college, it really depends on your teacher, but you might not even be told you have a test upcoming. It is your responsibility to have been looking at the syllabus and know when things are due and when tests will be taken (I personally have always been told, but in other departments, I have heard people indicate otherwise)
Money can't buy happiness. Just video games, which make me happy.
