My Take

Classdojo allows me to track participation in class by using points awarded for behaviors I select. At the same time, I can track behavior separately. And at the end of the week, parents are sent a pie chart of their student's positives and negatives.

How I Use It

I use it to award points when students participate in class. Participation can be a very nebulous thing to grade, and this lets me see exact acts that I can reward when I sit down to figure up a grade.

Very unreliable app

I have no idea why the school is still using this highly unreliable aplication for conveying important messages to parents - it should not, and I'm not the only parent in the class who missed the messages because of the software glitch.

ClassDojo is a fantastic tool for keeping in touch with students and their parents regarding academic progress.

ClassDojo is a fantastic teaching tool for teachers because it is interesting and makes possible many activities that, without the use of this technological tool, would be challenging to meet many learning objectives because teachers would have to spend more time trying to cover what ClassDojo facilitates. For example, sharing lessons and assignments with parents. However, in order to use ClassDojo effectively, teachers' knowledge of this technology (TK) is key, so they can benefit from the tools that can also significantly help students.

I use ClassDojo on the regular and I love that it is safe and secure to message parents, share activities, and personal information about specific children. I love the portfolio feature that allows me to share child-specific materials.

I love it! It is helpful in a variety of contexts and areas in order to address specific needs and behaviors.
