I think we need to lessen the number of cash in times. I think just sticking to one type would be best. I feel quarterly could be a better frequency option and could be an excitement builder and goal for each quarter. Teachers could choose on their own if they want to do more frequent cash ins. I think that the app needs to be more single sign on friendly for them in classlink. It seems after some time it logs them out of the saved page. Some kids do not know their points amount and do not cash in points ever due to this I feel.

I'm not sure if Student of the Month is included in this survey, but I don't like it. No matter how I try, I end up rewarding the same kids that will get recognized year after year. I think positive phone calls or in class simple recognition, more often is more effective in the long run.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel the time commitment is the biggest challenge. It takes a lot of time to add the points during class time. It also takes a lot of time to check Seesaw, to cash in the points and update dojo after, remembering who cashed in points, and finding the time in class to do some of the rewards is challenging too. There are a lot of different prize levels that get confusing. Dojo seems to motivate some kids, but for others it does not seem to help with desired behaviors.

# data[].attributes.body
Too many rewards. Students need to be rewarded/praised daily, but using "points" this often is difficult and time consuming. "Shout outs" or similar probably motivate most kids as well as this complex point system.

# data[].attributes.body
I would strongly suggest setting a limit for the school store. My kiddoes are really holding out and keep saving their points each month and I am afraid they will bankrupt the school by buying so many items from the store! (LOL- joking but I have a feeling my kids are going to be able to buy a lot)

# data[].attributes.body
I like being able to choose my own class rewards. And being able to change them monthly.

# data[].attributes.body
The students earning the most points are the students who don't need outside motivators to do a good job and the students who are not earning as many points/rewards are the ones who really need encouragement but not many of them are motivated even with so many options for rewards.

# data[].attributes.body
The points should be more specific. I find myself often times only giving out "Beeing Responsible" rewards because the rest are not applicable often.

# data[].attributes.body
It is a lot to keep track of and maintain but does help students to participate more, knowing they will receive a reward.

# data[].attributes.body
Adding time needed to manage it for awarding points and keeping track of removing points each month when cashed in

# data[].attributes.body
Time. Never enough. Time is needed daily to give points. At the end of the month, time is needed to set up point rewards. (make seesaw, assign seesaw) Time is needed to address the rewards each month, at least briefly in class. (make and show slides) And the hardest part is tracking kids to be sure they get the various rewards each month. Certain rewards take a lot of time, for example if lunch is offered, more of my "free" time is used. But trying to keep track of all rewards for all students is tough.

# data[].attributes.body
teachers should be able to give points out for specific things and not just the 4 bees. Kids are missing out on not knowing exactly what they did to get points. Also some things should be worth 1 point. Not just 2 and 4. Please give teachers the autonomy to do what is best for our class with how many points and what to get points for.

# data[].attributes.body
I don't love the point value we all have to use. I don't understand why some bees are worth more than others. I'd prefer if all positives were just 1 point.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that with sharing the system some teachers on the account are changing settings and it should be a group decision/or school decision. Also being able to add different things that they get points for specifically. I think that helps the kids know exactly what they are doing to get the points.

# data[].attributes.body
I think there are too many rewards- individual rewards, whole class rewards, grade-lever rewards, mid-year rewards- it's a lot to keep track of and to comprehend for the younger learners.

# data[].attributes.body
I think the program is easy to use on the teacher end (adding/cashing in points).

# data[].attributes.body
Monthly classroom rewards is a lot. Maybe let the teacher decide when to cash in points.

# data[].attributes.body
There is no real challenge in earning rewards. The amount of points for the grade level incentive made it so that every kid could participate which made it not as special.

# data[].attributes.body
My kids get logged out often and ask during class for the code. I wish they could stay logged in similarly to other programs.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel that there are too many "levels" of rewards. I think keeping it simple would be easier for kids and teachers and parents to all conceptualize. For example, only doing the monthly rewards. Or only doing the school store. I do get the idea behind the variation, but it is a lot.

# data[].attributes.body
It is hard to keep track of rewards, what they picked, did you cash out their points or not, when did you implement the reward, etc. Also, it seems like I am finishing giving rewards and have to turn around and create new monthly rewards again. Plus we have the quarterly rewards on top of that. Then we will be adding in the school store soon..

# data[].attributes.body
Not being able to add in our own dojo reward categories is something I miss from when I did it on my own last year.

# data[].attributes.body
I want to give points more specifically than just 4 bees. This would REALLY help motivation. Kids last year were doing more when they new they got points for specific things. The Quarterly grade level reward implementation was choppy. It was the first time so I think a learning curve here but I would like to see more freedom to the grade level as to when the reward was given and how many points it cost. It felt micro managed when we had already discussed and worked it out. How is semester school store working? Where are we turning in kids spent and on what? Please do not wait until the last minute to give us information like the quarterly award was. This would be helpful to teachers.

# data[].attributes.body
Monthly is a lot! Whole grade level is a lot. It just seems like reward after reward and then inevitably the the excitement will fade because it will just be routine.

# data[].attributes.body
More "all grade" rewards. The students LOVED having a movie day and they love most things when classes get together.

# data[].attributes.body
Maybe taking a student survey, especially with the ones that are less motivated by dojo points and seeing what interests them and is reasonable to work toward.

# data[].attributes.body
It feels like a lot to keep track of and time consuming for the teacher.

It encourages students to participate more.

# data[].attributes.body
Some of my students get distracted and constantly ask if they can play games (usually during class time). I have that feature turned off.

Some families had trouble getting connected, and a lot of time/effort was spent on something that's not of the most importance (vs. homework/tests/etc.)

# data[].attributes.body
Keeping track of reward choices and finding time for them without missing class time. Also many students are holding out for the school store.

# data[].attributes.body
The ding is turned off on some classrooms, so not all students hear that rewarding "ding" sound. So I just remember to turn my sound off for that tab. That way it seems fair and no students feel like they were missed because they didn't hear the "ding"

# data[].attributes.body
Students seem to like to get extra points for following our bee's. However, some it is not a motivator for them.

# data[].attributes.body
The different levels of rewards are almost too much, especially for our youngest kiddos. They're not understanding classroom, vs grade level, vs whole school and aren't yet ready to manage how to save/spend points for all the different rewards. They'd be content/better understand if it was just one monthly reward instead of all the different levels.

# data[].attributes.body
Some of my students are holding out on points because they want the physical prizes from the school (at least I think..) so they are not cashing in for my classroom rewards. I am having a hard time finding fun, new prizes for the virtual setting.

# data[].attributes.body
Not all kids log in all the time! I would rather do a whole class thing that they can see... like puff balls in a jar. Only do individual behavior if and when needed. I am not big on rewarding for expected behaviors.

# data[].attributes.body
It can be difficult to find time give the rewards in our busy schedules.

# data[].attributes.body
Students should not be rewarded for doing what they are supposed to do in the first place. They should be only rewarded for going above and beyond what is expected of them.

# data[].attributes.body
There is so much extra work with giving prizes all the time and adjusting points. I am spending way too much time working outside of my contracted hours doing anything Dojo and PBIS related.

# data[].attributes.body
It is nice that all teachers that share the students can use the same system.

# data[].attributes.body
It sometimes feels like a lot to keep track- who gets what reward and when it should be given and fitting it into classes without taking up too much time.

# data[].attributes.body
Many students are turning in points, but then not requesting the reward (not using the HW pass, or asking for lunch with a classmate, etc). I often have to remind, and even then they do not use them.

# data[].attributes.body
Motivates students especially the second half of the day when they are tired.

# data[].attributes.body
Kids love the PRIZE day! <3

Dojo points can be a good motivator to earn extra points for completing work/assignments in class.

# data[].attributes.body
Kids get excited to earn points and rack up large totals

# data[].attributes.body
Keeping track of the points helps me to acknowledge the positive behavior.

# data[].attributes.body
I have used Dojo in the past and for some reason this year it just doesn't seem to be a motivator. They will say they are excited but then will not do things that gain them points.

# data[].attributes.body
My students are motivated by the points and eager to earn prizes. Class dojo is very user friendly.

I really enjoy it as is. It is very effective and easy to implement.

Easy to give and redeem points. I do dojo day each Thursday so kids have the chance to use them weekly. Younger kids need more often rewards I feel like. I like having the freedom to do class level prizes and make them myself.

The kiddos will often engage to get the Dojo points. They motivate them.

Really helps a few kids focus. Most seem to like it.

It is a good motivator for the students and helps to keep them engaged and focused on class. Students seemed excited to earn points towards a reward.

I have noticed students in my 11:35 class being extremely kind to one another in order to gain DOJO points.

Students being able to directly visualize their points as they gain them has been a strength. They get excited when they hear the ding and see their scores raise.
