2. What is classroom management?
Classroom management is all of the things that a teacher
does to organize students, space, time, and materials so
that instruction in content and learning can take place
(Wong, 1991).

3. 1) Class Dojo
http://www.classdojo.com/
• Class Dojo is a behavior management program that is
offered online and it is free.
• Teachers can easily award positive (and negative)
points for behavior in class in real-time.
• The program gives teachers a behavior-tracking system
that provides reports that can be shared with parent
and administrators.

4. 2) Timers
• Timers are great for giving extra structure to a
lesson. Whether for transition time, classwork
time, or even a provided break, timers keep the
teacher and students on track.
• Timers with Music Classtools.net
• Various Timers online-stopwatch.com
5. 3) Student Selector (Name Generator)
• Put away the old popsicle stick technique.
These sites provide an easy way to randomly
select a student from your class.
• Some setup is required, but once students
have been entered sit back and watch the
computer do the work.

9. 7) Screenleap.com
• Share your screen with others so that they can
feel more involved with the class.
• Students can also be asked to share the screen
so that you can look into what they are doing.
(Not recommended for video since it is very jumpy.)

10. 8) Drop it to me
• Forget those jump drives being passed around
the room in a hurry at the end of a project.
Using dropittome, students can instantly send
work to your dropbox account. No email or
login is necessary for students.

lesson.
