Overall Satisfaction with Hero
Right now, Hero should be used across the entire school campus by at least all of our classroom teachers. We're struggling this year because of a vast teacher shortage in Hawaiʻi but at our school as well, but it's still working much more smoothly than last year. :)
- Allows ALL students to earn points at the push of a button.
- Connects with infinite Campus so student schedules and info are always accurate on the Hero site.
- Allows teachers to create their own groups for after school programs or even small groups in their classrooms.
- Perhaps the redemption system could be easier. I'd like to click a student's name and type in how many points I'd like to subtract/redeem. That'd help the process along.
- Also to allow track codes to track point amounts larger than 250. We have some things that are more expensive, so it's difficult to have to take multiple steps.
- Maybe Hero could help with an inventory management system for stores?
- Definitely worth the money. The kids are happy, they're using the program as often as they can, and they appreciate the opportunity to be rewarded for their good behavior.
- We've been able to sustain a store, and that's super awesome. I know we wouldn't be able to without the help of Hero and the ways in which we keep the hype.
- I think I need more help with teacher adoption. We have a lot of initiatives at our school, so we're trying to take on a little more than we can chew at this point. We're getting there though!
I haven't tried any other products that are similar to Hero, but Hero is awesome and I can't see changing the program we have at Kalākaua.
