Tech That Teaches Calm: Digital Strategies for Self-Regulation & Classroom Management
Description
Educational technology can powerfully support self-regulation and classroom management through engaging, student-centered tools. Platforms like Classroom Zen provide guided breathing visuals that help students reset during transitions. ClassDojo and Classcraft build accountability through real-time feedback and gamification. Digital mood check-ins via Seesaw or Google Forms help teachers identify emotional needs early. Tools like Time Timer and Too Noisy promote independence and group awareness. Meanwhile, GoNoodle, Khan Academy, and IXL support regulation through movement, pacing, and goal setting.
