With the constant stress of preparing lessons, managing and auditing a curriculum program, daily monitoring of student achievements and analysing student progress for reporting purposes, teachers have little time to actively engage with the students in the classroom if they continue to use paper-based chronicles and journals. Additionally, reporting cannot be transparent or objective using out-dated technology for record-keeping. With an estimated 60% or more of classroom teachers using 19th century technology for classroom management it is time to change the paradigm. The Educational Revolution won't have arrived until all teachers are working in the digital format for their own purposes.
The Presentation uses My Class Record, a revolutionary software application, to demonstrate how teachers can still maintain control of their work, be more accountable and be able to spend more time with their students.
