I recently discovered a SUPER AMAZINGLY AWESOME web app. This app is called Remind101 and it is a one-way mass text messaging service that allows teachers to sign up for FREE! The great thing about this app is that it is RIDICULOUSLY easy!
Step 1) Sign up 4 FREE
Step 2) Set up a class – NOTE: you can set up multiple classes, this is a great tool to separate each section you have if you are a senior years teacher
Step 3) Give your students the code and have them text in the code to sign up for your class.
Step 4) Quickly & Easily send out mass-text messages to your students and/or parents
This is an app that I have not used before but I am DEFINITELY going to be using it for my upcoming student teaching placement. I am going to have one for each of my classes, it’ll be a great way to send out reminders to students, class updates and even video or web links.
The great thing about this app is that it is a safe way for teachers to send mass emails to both students and parents. There is no concern for the teacher about giving out their cell phone number. The downfall to the app is that students cannot reply to the messages. Overall a great app that I totally recommend.
