What is ClassroomScreen?
ClassroomScreen is a free, simple web tool that is a one-stop-shop with useful widgets you display on your classroom screen to use while teaching or while students are working.
What Can You Do With The Widgets?
Currently, there are fourteen widgets you can use on ClassroomScreen. You can display multiple widgets at once.
- Background – Customise your background with one of the images or GIFs provided. Or, you can upload or record your own background.
- Random Name – Enter the names of students and choose one at random.
- Dice - Roll one or more dice.
- Sound Level – Monitor classroom noise levels using the microphone on your device.
- Media - You can upload images, embed YouTube videos, share a webcam or embed other tools.
- QR Code – Enter a link and a QR code is automatically generated. Great when students have devices like iPads — they can come up to the board, scan the code and go straight to a site.
- Drawing – There are two sizes available where you can free draw. The larger sized canvas can replace the background if you wish.
- Text – A simple tool to write instructions, reminders, learning goals and so on.
- Work Symbols – Display one of four options: work together, ask a neighbor, whisper, and silence.
- Traffic Light – Display a red, amber, or green light to provide a visual reminder of when to move around, begin a task, pack up etc.
- Timer – Count up or count down, record “laps”, and more. You can customise the tone that rings when the time is up.
- Stopwatch- Useful for timing class activities
- Clock – Shows the time as a 12 or 24 hour clock. Also shows a calendar.
- Calendar - Show the date or the whole month.
