Challenges
*Students can easily get
distracted or wander to
other features on their
phones
* Since students can
simultaneously work on
assignments, they often
find it funny to delete their
peers work, and since
google does automatic
saving of documents there
is no way of retrieving lost
information.
*From previous
experience, I have seen
students rush to get the
answer, but since they are
so focused on finishing
first they do not carefully
read question or answer
choices.
*I think if used for correct
purposes, students and
teachers can all benefit.

Evaluation
I used to think Class Dojo
was an app that only
offered communication
tools, but after going
through all the features it
has to offer, I think it is
now one of my favorite
resources that I will be
using.
Personally, I am not a big
fan of this set up. Maybe
when I am able to explore
through the features while
actively engaging a
classroom, I will see it
more beneficial.
I think this is a great tool
to enhance classroom
participation. Children get
excited when they are
allowed to use their
devices, so reviewing
content can be a fun yet
efficient activity to do
through this website.
Quizlet is a great study
tool for students and can
be used for reinforcing
knowledge in the
classroom. All of the
learning can also be
tracked through this
website which is very
useful.
I had no idea a website like
this existed. I think it is
very useful to be able to
have all of these reports
stored online and to able
to access them from
anywhere. I loved this
website.

*Since the site gives
points for finishing in a
short amount of time,
students might be more
worried to finish first
rather than getting the
answers right.
From my time using it, I
have not seen any flaws or
issues present themselves.
*This site is fairly new, so I
have never seen anyone
use it yet. I do not think
many districts have
boughten memberships to
it either.
*If children are not
properly walked through
it, they can become easily
confused.
*Better suited for older
students.
*Sometimes students can
get carried away and post
conversations that have
derived from academic
content.
When I first discovered this
site I was over the moon,
because it used strategies
that are appealing to
children such as memes,
and special powers that
will put them at an
advantage point wise.
I think this is such a great
site, and it has so much to
offer! Definitely one of my
favorites.
From what I saw while
exploring it, this could be a
really fun way of
establishing literacy
content in the classroom.
I like this website, but
probably would not use
unless I was teaching in
middle school or high
school.
I think Edmodo is a great
communication site, where
children and teachers can
interact with course
material.
