  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!)
Love class Dojo! We used it with Kindergarteners and when the did something to earn a point (positive or negative), they were responsible for doing it themselves. It was always up on a computer and they knew the seriousness of not changing it when they weren't asked. If there was a student who did abuse it he/she wasn't allowed to touch it and the teacher did it for them. When he/she demonstrated positive behaviors, they were rewarded with giving themselves a point.
