Welcome to Hāpara, your school’s new classroom management tool!
We’re so glad that your school has joined our global community. Hāpara is a tool you can use in your digital classroom to support learners on their road to digital citizenship.
🙌 Support learners on their road to digital citizenship
Browser tabs
See which websites learners currently have open on their devices. This is helpful when you want to check learners’ progress on an assignment.
Close tabs
Closing a student’s tab is a discreet way to redirect them when they are off task or on an unsafe website. It lets the learner know that their current activity is not what good digital citizenship looks like.
🔍 Real-time student screen viewing
Current screens
This is helpful when you need to see what the student sees on their screen in real time.
Send messages
Send messages of encouragement, redirection or as guidance to students in their learning.
Pause screens
Pause student screens to get their attention, help them refocus or take a quick brain break.
🚫 Eliminate online distractions
Guided browsing
Create curated browsing sessions for learners. Allow them to access just a few specific sites, or give them a little more autonomy and just filter out the distracting sites.
Scheduling and templates
Save time and get class started on the right foot each day by scheduling focused browsing sessions ahead of time and using templates for your most commonly used websites.
Groups
Adding learners to groups in Hāpara allows educators to create truly differentiated digital learning experiences without the hassle of trying to manage it all by hand. Create curated browsing experiences based on the individual needs of each learner.
🧊 Freeze frame!
Freeze tabs
Freeze tabs that students already have open to focus them on an assessment or to accommodate login pages or redirects.
Activity viewer
Get a bird’s eye view of what’s happening in your digital classroom. See which learners are collaborating during a browsing session, or identify learners that are on the wrong website.
Google Drive
Access students’ Google Drives to help them find missing Google Docs, or pop into a document to provide quick formative feedback.
