<\/a><\/p>\nComplication – Keeping Track of Data<\/strong><\/p>\n There are so many\u00a0different\u00a0aspects to ClassRealm that keeping track of all the levels, XP, rewards, profiles, and individual\u00a0achievements is an\u00a0immense\u00a0hassle. The biggest issue is keeping track of all the papers involved. Every story and book overview written has to be read and recored in the Achievement Log. Each\u00a0achievement\u00a0is worth a certain number of XP, which have to be\u00a0recorded\u00a0on the Level Sheet. Once a student has so many XP they level up. Once the class has so many levels they earn a reward. As you can imagine it becomes hard to keep track of it all. It’s frustrating to grab my keys at the end of a long day and walk towards the door only to remember that I haven’t logged all my ClassRealm information for the day. I don’t always remember either. Things come up, or I have to make it to my coaching job and the ClassRealm paper work piles up. People ask me why I don’t just put everything in a spread sheet, but that’s just one more step to worry about. ClassRealm is a wonderful system and it works well as long as you can stay on top of it. But can you? As a teacher with dozens of other things to worry about, ClassRealm shouldn’t be the hassle it is when done on paper.<\/p>\n Solution<\/strong><\/p>\n Now this problem can (and will) be solved with one simple\u00a0fix – an online interface. A student could submit a story for review on the ClassRealm site or a ClassRealm app and it would send it right to me, the teacher. I could read it, deem it worthy and the computer would log it away. The site would award the student an achievement, XP, levels and inform me of their reward (if there was one). As much as I love paper, as a material, I’ll be filled with joy the day ClassRealm goes paperless. The potential for our system skyrockets with the use of technology and that thing people call “the interweb”. Now we just have to get an interface made. Easier said then done, eh? Until that time I’ll be staying a little later then I’d prefer, making sure all the levels add up, making sure every students gets the XP and\u00a0achievements they deserve.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hello ClassRealm fans, While looking back over some of my blog posts I noticed that I always focus on the positive aspects of ClassRealm.
