Let’s dig into some of the key tools that you can get started with on day one to help lay the foundation for your classroom in iLearnNYC.

Create a Go-To Spot for Classroom Updates on the Activity Feed

Communicating with students is one of the most important yet time-consuming parts of being a teacher. Outside of instruction, students often have a lot of questions about classroom activities and need reminders about what’s coming up. Time gets eaten up quickly when the same questions and reminders need to go out again and again to different students.

In iLearnNYC, you can leverage two-way communication with students right on the homepage to keep the class up to date on learning resources, a daily agenda or other important reminders. The Activity Feed can become your classroom’s go-to source for information where everyone can comment and engage. You can record videos right in it, pin important posts to the top, and share links to content or assignments. Learn how to create a post.

Empower Students to Document Their Own Learning With Portfolio

Tracking learning progress is no small feat, but it’s a lot easier when students are engaged in the process. You can gain an entire library of learning evidence by empowering your students to document their own achievements in Portfolio. At the same time, students gain autonomy and build reflection skills.

How does it work?

Students simply add photo and video evidence of their learning and include reflections that you can evaluate and provide feedback on. Each piece of work can be shared with parents and guardians in just one click. The Portfolio mobile app enables on-the-go documentation, and the interface grows with students by starting in Funster mode for young learners and nonreaders. Work is saved year after year so students can reflect on their entire learning journey.
