Increasing Student Engagement with Positive Reinforcement
Class Dojo
ClassDojo is a classroom management and task assignment tool that provides real-time feedback for students on how they're meeting classroom expectations. It's a great way to track student behavior, set expectations and goals for students, and offers ways for teachers to share this information with parents.
Getting Started with ClassDojo
This is a great tool to increase student engagement...
Display it on your Interactive Board
This can help with classroom management during small groups, center time, or simply during transition time because the teacher can control it from a laptop, an iPad, teacher computer, or even a cell phone with no distractions.
Secondary teachers tie this into student participation grades.
Wilson High School has adopted Chromebooks and many of their teachers use this daily during the semester to track classroom participation points that factor into course grades.
No more forgetting...use the App on your phone
Sometimes elementary teachers may have to pull cards or correct students in the lunchroom...during a bathroom break... or while on the move in the hallway. Often these corrections are forgotten before you return to the classroom. Being able to note students' behavior on a phone or an iPad now makes your record constant and portable.
Class DOJO tracks both positive and negative behaviors
