Your guide to a paperless classroom
*PLEASE NOTE – DropTask is now Ayoa – an all-in-one tool for idea generation and collaboration, that goes beyond traditional task management. Discover Ayoa and achieve your best work.*This week is American Education Week – a time to celebrate public education and honor those that are making a difference to the quality of education in the country. While we give recognition to the people in education, the technological resources and tools that educators and students use should also be recognized as they promote better, and more efficient ways of learning by creating a thriving environment in which students can increase their productivity – they also have great potential for flexibility and personalization in teaching and learning.
DropTask is an essential tool which can be implemented by both educators and students in the classroom. Whether you’re working in groups, sharing files with the class or simply looking for information on a mobile device, DropTask supports a more organized way of working and helps to bring a paper filled classroom into the digital world. Below, we’ve got 3 quick tips on how you can get started with using DropTask for education…
1. Collaborate with colleagues
Invite team members to your projects where you can share training materials, work on joint lesson plans or coordinate cross-classroom activities – all in one online collaborative workspace. Working in real-time, staff members can access and update projects from any device at any time with our range of apps, and can leave comments or suggestions on tasks for colleagues.2. Create an online distribution center
Wave goodbye to the copy room, because gone are the days when you walk into the classroom with stacks of paper, stapled and ready for distribution. Invite students to your projects and attach documents for them to download – making it easier for you to maintain and distribute lesson resources.
3. Don’t re-invent the wheel
It’s almost certain that if you’re setting up a lesson plan or creating a class project, you’ll need it again sometime in the future. Keeping everything online, you can be sure to save time by instantly turning your projects into re-usable templates which can be used over and over again.
