Teachers’ Dashboard
Effortless Implementation
Before deciding for new stuff, you want to know exactly how it works. Especially as an educator. That’s why we’ve designed the Teacher’s Dashboard with a minimal-effort policy in mind to make it as simple as possible to implement Mastory at your school and adjust it to your requirements:
Empower Your Teaching in 3 Steps:
Teacher Onboarding
We introduce you to the Dashboard’s user interface and how it relates with the cornerstones of the story in a quick presentation (1 x 25 minutes).
School-Year / Semester Kick-Off
Align the first episodes to your pacing in the Dashboard and do everything else as usual.
Watch Your Students Grow
Check students’ growth and effort twice a week (1 x 15 mins).
- Teachers use our dashboard to align the story to their pacing and to check students’ growth and effort (15mins)
- Students are presented with algebraic challenges in the Mastory app as part of an overarching story
- Students begin to experiment with the mobile app and tackle the problems (20mins)
- Without any changes, teachers hold their regular Algebra 1 class
- Students get back to the app and apply their learnings to the story context (20mins)
Adaptive Story
Just schedule your instruction as usual and let the dashboard know about it – the story automatically adapts to fit your preferred teaching pace.
Think Positive!
In their dashboard, teachers can view student activities and are notified about class trends. Feedback is always achievement-oriented, never deficit-oriented.
»I like that a character was made, and it felt like you were having a conversation with a real person.«
A student
»I think it will make math more interesting and fun at the same time, since there is an engaging story behind it.«
A student
»You are doing work, but it doesn’t feel like you’re doing work. It feels you’re playing the game, and you’re just like solving the challenges.«
A student
»I think that people my age would like it. Instead of doing problems and problems after problem, we’d have something to enjoy.«
A student
»After attending the course, the children have remained interested in programming. When I asked them what topics they are interested in for science class, they said they want to program a robot.«
A teacher
»This approach creates a new form of collectivity and interaction among the students, which is highly interesting for educational research as well.«
