In remote and distance learning, motivation is everything
Schools are closed. Students are home with distractions. Parents are busy and may not be able to supervise kids as much as they’d like.
And you need to keep students motivated, while also staying connected to them.
By giving you the tools to motivate students in a remote learning environment, Classcraft can help you make your COVID-19 response plan as smooth as possible.
