ClassDojo - Three New Features in Three Weeks!

If you know me, or you've had a good look through my site, you'll know that I'm a huge fan of ClassDojo! So I was super excited when the Dojo team asked me to help them promote some awesome new features over the next few weeks. Being both a Dojo mentor and beta app tester I've had the chance to test these features out a little early and provide feedback, and I'm always so impressed by how the ClassDojo team respond and implement the feedback they receive from all of us! To find out more about ClassDojo, check out my ClassDojo page.

So let's explore the first awesome new feature... GROUPS!

Here's a bit of info from the ClassDojo team:

HOW IT WORKS:
ClassDojo Groups enables teachers to group students any way they like: table groups, reading groups, house teams, project groups, and more. Teachers can easily encourage a team for any skill important to their classroom with just a single tap. Each group will keep its own running total, which students love because it provides a sense of accomplishment and camaraderie, and fosters a desire to keep going and compete with other groups!

Group points will still show up on student profiles alongside their individually awarded points so that students and parents can easily see their overall progress from home.

DEVICES:
Groups will work and sync across any iOS or Android device, and will also work on any computer. 

I love this new feature! Having played around with it prior to the official release I've found it simple to use, you just swipe across if you're on a mobile device, and your Groups page is at your fingertips. Students can be added to multiple groups, so you can set up groups for numerous classroom activities, making it really easy to award points! You can find out more about Groups here: www.classdojo.com/groups.

Overall this is a fantastic new feature to kickstart Three New Features in Three Weeks! 
Stay tuned in the coming weeks for more awesome new features!
