Take a second to think about how many pages you print or photocopy in just one week for your classes. Then think about how many pages of homework you collect in from your students each week. Multiply that by 39 weeks - that's a lot of paper!
Lately, a new crop of apps have emerged such as Showbie and Google Classroom that boast a number of benefits to embracing a 'Paperless Classroom'. Here are our Top 3 advantages to joining the revolution!
Lately, a new crop of apps have emerged such as Showbie and Google Classroom that boast a number of benefits to embracing a 'Paperless Classroom'. Here are our Top 3 advantages to joining the revolution!
1. You can't lose an app
How many times have you had a student who's lost their bits of their coursework that's either been printed out on paper or emailed to you? Or even worse, what if you lost that student's coursework after it's been submitted to you? Paperless apps keep all coursework submission completely organised for you so nothing will ever be lost again!
2. Your school will save a lot of money
I'm talking between £7000 - £14,000 per school year on the cost of paper, ink, photocopiers - according to Showbie's calculations.
3. Your environment will thank you!
Think about the amount of pages that you estimated you worked through in a school year. Multiply that again by the amount of teachers in your school to get the real big picture. Since Showbie's launch, they have saved more than 178,652,920 pages, which works out to 21,434 trees so far.
