Are you a teacher like me, wanting to promote student agency but worried that the sandcastle you’ve built could fall apart at any moment? I’m a Year 4 teacher at an international school in China. Due to the pandemic, I am starting the year mid-way through the first term, so my students have been through a lot of change and uncertainty. At the time this assignment was posted, I had not begun teaching my class in person. One of the concerns I’ve been told about is the lack of routine and expectations the students’ teacher had for them the previous year. I believe the word “feral” was used at some point during this conversation. While I am an experienced teacher with 10-plus years under my belt, I consider classroom management to be the weakest part of my “game”. I don’t consider Classcraft to be a magical tool that will transform my classroom; however, I do believe there is the potential for future use. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Classcraft is an app available on web browsers and mobiles. It uses role-playing stories to engage students and help them manage their behaviour. In the spirit of gamification, I have used Twine to present information about Classcraft and my conclusions on the app.\u00a0 Please click the following link->https:\/\/shemetec.itch.io\/a1-classcraft<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Are you a teacher like me, wanting to promote student agency but worried that the sandcastle you’ve built could fall apart at any moment?
