  Case: Class Dojo
To assist with classroom management, I started using an app named Class Dojo. The app assists with documenting both students positive and negative behaviors. The design of the app allows the students and parents to get connected via email or app, and they are able to view their behavior daily. I assign a responsible student to manage the program during class by utilizing my iPad to make the proper behavior notations. Do you think it is fair to allow students who have been proven to be responsible the opportunity to make such documentation with teacher supervision?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I think that the supervision of classroom dojo should be reserved for only the teacher. Not only would it be unfair for only a handful of students to be allowed to assist with monitoring, but that is a HUGE confidentiality issue. Information like that should be kept from students and shared only with teachers and faculty.
