What is a classroom management app?

A classroom management application is a web or mobile application that records student attendance, grades assignments and exams, compiles students' individual assessments into an overall course grade, and provides teachers with data that can be used to improve their teaching methods. The app may also include features for communicating with students such as sending announcements to the entire class or contacting specific students.

Classroom management apps often share components with other student management apps, such as attendance management or gradebook apps. Popular classroom management applications include Remind, ClassDojo, and StudentPoint.

Here are some recent classroom management app examples built with Crowdbotics:

How to successfully grow your classroom management application

An app for managing a classroom should focus on helping teachers achieve learning outcomes. The app should be able to track student progress and make it easy for students to access the lessons that they need. Classroom management apps can also increase their user base by providing value-added features such as auto-grading and student tracking across multiple platforms.

Risks and challenges of building a classroom management application

A classroom management app is a great way to enable educators to streamline the classroom management process, but there are risks associated with the use of these apps. If they are used for purposes that violate privacy laws or in a way that is prohibited by school policy, then they can lead to legal liability and/or disciplinary action for the educator. It is important to work closely with your app development team and school counsel to ensure that you implement your app in accordance with the applicable law and school policies.
