ClassDojo – An Education App For Use During Corona Virus Closedowns
The World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 as a global pandemic on Wednesday, March 11, 2020. That is quickly finding governments and Departments of Health requiring schools, universities, and colleges to close due to the expansive COVID-19 outbreak in communities all over the globe in the hope of reducing the spread of this infection.
Educational institutions that are trying to continue their classes are increasingly switching to online instruction, especially when they hope to resume classes after the Spring Break, which has begun sooner in most instances.
That is when virtual online classes come into play as they are chosen by educators in place of in-person classes. ClassDojo is a free educational app that allows teachers, counselors, students, and parents to interact online. Only teachers can create a virtual classroom to share videos and pictures, and students and parents can access the virtual classroom only with a code sent by the teacher.
ClassDojo is not only like a teacher’s online classroom assistant, but it is also a FREE user-friendly, simple, and versatile method of teaching and motivating students and keeping them and their parents aware of what is happening and what the students are learning. The instructions state that within 15 minutes it can be set up and teach how to navigate the layout and features. It only takes another five minutes to be rolled out.
The use of customizable fun little characters particularly for younger students, the ability to earn points, grouping students to encourage working together, and music have great appeal to the students. You can also post announcements including current news and upcoming schedules and events.
ClassDojo is an exciting and encouraging online learning platform that is part of a proactive readiness plan to create assignments and activities and to be able to reward students for their positive participation and behavior while keeping up with the academic requirements.
