How Does It Work for Teachers?

A short story by Bookroo

Mrs. Gold creates a new class, adds her students, sets up individual reading challenges for the semester, and shares the class login page with her students.

Students log in with their personal passcodes. Several times a week, they record the progress they've made in the physical books they are reading.

Mrs. Gold uses her teacher dashboard to view

Reading stats for each student.
Detailed reading log for each student.
Quiz stats for each student.
Progress on individual reading challenges.
Progress on the classroom reading challenge.

Mrs. Gold uses this information to

Celebrate student successes (a.k.a. geek out with a student about the ending of a particularly delightful book).
Reward students for completing a challenge.
Explore book lists with a student struggling to connect with the right book.
Update a student’s reading challenge to introduce a student to a new genre.
Illustrate how a student is succeeding during a Parent-Teacher Conference.
Add new reading recommendations to the digital class bulletin.

Mrs. Gold has a classroom of smarties who read more books than they ever imagined they could.

Teacher Sneak Peak

How Does It Work for Students?

The much anticipated sequel

Violet sighs as she happily turns the last page of her book that ended all too soon. Using her phone or computer, she logs in to her student account and scans the book’s barcode to open the book on the platform.

In just a few clicks and keystrokes, Violet:

Marks the book as read
Rates the book (it was great!)
Writes a short review
Takes the book quiz

Violet’s actions result in a cascade of reactions

She earns 1000 points to use in a digital shop.
The class reading challenge is updated.
Her book is added to the digital class bulletin.
Her stats are updated on the teacher dashboard.

Violet feels motivated to read more as she

Sees how she is progressing on her personal challenge.
Sees how the class is progressing on their class challenge.
Sees her personal reading stats and feels proud of how many books she’s read.
Earns points & gems to unlock digital collectibles.

Violet discovers new books when

Her classmate finishes a book and rates it highly.
She uses the platform’s discovery tools to explore books by topic, genre, or difficulty.
She browses the digital class bulletin to see what books are popular in her class.
She explores books that are similar to a book she just finished.

In need of a new book, Violet scans her Want to Read list to select her next book. When she finds just the book, she closes her device, walks to the class bookshelves, puts said book in her hand, and cozies down for another adventure.
