Motivation, as the name suggests, is what ‘moves’ us. It is the reason we do anything at all. For teachers, a lack of motivation has long been one of the most frustrating obstacles to student learning. Teachers have a lot to do with their students' motivational level. A student may arrive in class with a certain degree of motivation. But the teacher's behavior and teaching style, the structure of the course, the nature of the assignments and informal interactions with students all have a large effect on student motivation. Classcraft is a game-based approach to teaching and learning. It was created to encourage your child's participation in class and with their lessons, promote good behavior, and develop 21st-century skills like collaboration and communication. Everything they learn stays the same, but they get to have a little fun each day! In class, your child creates a character and works together with their team of classmates. They’re able to earn and use special “powers” to support their own academic learning, as well as help their teammates when they need it. They get some other cool perks, too, for their hard work like new equipment and pets to customize their character!
The parent app is designed to keep you updated on your child's progress in school and extend part of the game experience to your home.
This course is made to introduce educators to the platform classcraft so that they will be able to implement in their everyday planning thus reaching the best outcomes with their students.
