ClassDojo

What do you like best?

Easy to navigate around and to see latest notifications or posts. You can see notices to you as the parent and then switch to see it from your child(ren)'s point of view where it lists their work and outstanding activities. Like most things, this is only as useful as the school that uses it makes it and it depends on how they wish to utilise it.

What do you dislike?

It's really not easy to edit documents on a mobile device but it's pretty simple on a PC. There's also no way to know if a message sent has been seen.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

Get they buy in of the school so that all features are utilised. Request the tech is updated to be better optimised for mobile use.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

I get to track my child's homework and get notified of any important messages from the school. It is the primary form of communication given the need to be paperless with Covid-19 around.
