ClassDojo

ClassDojo is amazing! ClassDojo is a behavior management tool for the classroom. Each student has a profile- complete with their own avatar-to which teachers can assign positive and negative points throughout the day. Its mission is to reinvent classrooms by bringing teachers, students, and parents closer together. The main thing I like about using ClassDojo in the classroom is parents and students have access to it as well as teachers. Students are able to earn points and receive instant encouragement from their teacher. Also, parents can receive instant messages, videos, announcements, etc. from the teacher to keep track of their children in the classroom. For some teachers, classroom management is one of the biggest challenges they face and they are always searching for something that will work. Well, at least that is what my practicum teachers have told me during my practicum experience thus far. Although I haven't had a practicum teacher to use Class Dojo in their classroom, I have heard a lot of other teachers talking about it and implementing it into their classroom.
