ClassDojo

ClassDojo is a school community platform that allows teachers to create an efficient environment for their students and involving the parents in this learning-teaching journey. Teachers, students, and parents can communicate through this platform by sharing photos and videos and sending messages.

Where and How to Use It?

Teachers can use this platform to engage their students by creating a lovely class atmosphere that students can have a voice. The students can share photos and videos in their learning portfolios and get feedback from the teacher. The teacher can give positive feedback on good skills, values, or successes, and this positive atmosphere can encourage students to be more involved in the class. Also, teachers can use this platform to communicate with their students' parents easily. Teachers can share photos and videos from the classroom and send direct messages to the parents to involve them in the learning process. Moreover, teachers can share lesson materials, make announcements, and assign homework by using this platform.

Limitations

The only limitation is the usage of this platform with appropriate age groups. This platform can be very engaging and effective with younger learners and their parents. However, with older learners such as adolescents and undergraduate students, it may not be appropriate to use. The teacher must consider the age-level carefully before starting to use this platform with the students.
