CLASSHIVE – A TEACHER'S PERSPECTIVE
Getting a class full of students logged on to a digital platform can be mayhem. The chaos and time constraints make what could have been a great lesson a disaster! Every teacher knows just how long it can take to get 26 eight year old's logged on and ready to go. Before you know it, half the session is gone and you feel too deflated to do the important part - teach. It is frustrating, demotivating and some days enough to make you swear to never use digital tools again!
As teachers, our workloads can be overwhelming. Curriculum planning, creating a positive learning environment, dealing with the mental health of students, forming relationships, professional development… And I haven't even touched on the administration side of teaching yet! On top of that, teaching in the 21st century means loads of ICT and digital tools - which of course have many benefits but can definitely add to the headache of our jobs. Which is crazy because the benefits in terms of accessibility, differentiation and diversity of content alone make these tools so worthwhile.
ClassHive relieves some of this stress and anything that calms a classroom definitely gets my tick of approval. With just ONE login per student, they have access to all their digital tools. This means no more searching for Reading Eggs passwords. This means no more printing, cutting and laminating Mathletics usernames. This means no more copying URLs from the whiteboard to their device. With a QR code login to ClassHive, students can access all their digital tools at the click of a button.
ClassHive understands. They know that we are time poor. They know that we need things to be as simple as possible. And having the ClassHive team do all the heavy lifting of set up is what dreams are made of. All you need to do is send lists of your logins and you'll magically receive one QR code per student (and an easy-to-use teacher dashboard) in return. It's that easy. This is a solution with immediate impact that without a doubt saves time and makes teaching easier.
ClassHive is there to make things easier. It lets us get back to what's important - teaching! ClassHive is definitely a must-have for the classroom but don’t take my word for it – book in for a webinar and see it in action!
