To give encouragement in the classroom, teachers can award students with feedback points (also known as Dojo points). Teachers can customize the feedback types to any skill they like, such as “grit” or “curiosity.” A student and their parents can view the feedback points they receive by creating a student account using the unique access code provided by their teacher. These codes can only be passed out by the teacher. They cannot view other students’ feedback points unless the teacher chooses to project the class (for example, with a Smartboard or interactive whiteboard), then other students in the class will be able to see aggregated total points of other students.
Parents may not see all feedback points awarded by the teacher in school if the teacher has elected not to share points with families.
ClassDojo sets limits on how long feedback points on student profiles are retained.
For all students, Classroom Feedback Points older than 12 months are automatically deleted on a rolling 12-month basis. For example, if a teacher sets up a class on ClassDojo on January 1, 2023, any Classroom Feedback Points given in that class on or before January 1, 2023, would be deleted by January 1, 2024 (and no longer viewable by any ClassDojo user). This means that Classroom Feedback Points cannot exist long-term. Teachers can also delete Classroom Feedback Points at any time.
