All-in-One Campus/Class Communication Platform

The teachers really appreciated the option of using Class Chat and many use it on a regular basis for quick reminders to students, etc.  They like that the platform is similar to Remind- an app that they have been using for years. Parent Square doesn't have the same options to reach students on their cellular devices like Class Chat. It is more interactive and the students pay attention to the notifications and check their phones. Plus Parent Square does not allow for a quick and simple back and forth and sharing of pictures, PDFs, etc. between teacher and students, especially teacher and multiple students... Essentially it comes down to the fact that students like the Class Chat format and will use the app. 

Class Chat is a promising tool for facilitating effective communication and collaboration within the educational ecosystem. This platform presents a seamless and user-friendly interface, offering students, faculty, and staff the means to engage in real-time discussions, resource sharing, and collaborative project work, all within a secure academic environment. Class Chat can play a role in fostering a sense of community and engagement among students, based on the platform’s responsiveness to inquiries, openness to feedback, and commitment to continuous improvement, based on user input. 

"Classchat—an app specifically designed to help facilitate communication between students, teachers, and faculty... The app was designed to be more secure than commonly used alternatives like Slack and Discord by using Google Accounts to sign into the application. This feature not only makes the platform more secure by tying login information to Google, it also makes it easier and more convenient to use."
