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!) Personally, I do not think this is a good decision. I've seen plenty of teachers allow such students to do important tasks only the teacher should be responsible of, and they have been 50/50 successful. One class the teacher allowed a "responsible" student to write down who had their homework and who didn't, but this student would just put down that everyone had their homework. They were trying to make everyone int he class happy, but this only hurts students and prevents them from properly learning. I would not trust this responsibility to a student, it's both unfair to the student themselves and the whole class. They could make influenced decisions. Keep it simple and bullet proof, do it yourself or have a teacher/classroom assistant take care of such tasks.
