The solution is also the world’s first education solution to incorporate QR codes and NFC-enabled Achievement Bands and Bubbles which can be worn by students. These allow teachers to quickly distribute badges, skill points and even virtual currency to students by bumping their phone to the student’s wristband or scanning a QR code on a desk.

Teachers can crowd source techniques that they develop in RedCritter Teacher with the built-in Idea Lab. The Idea Lab is a collection of installable ideas created by other teachers around the world. It includes a review system so great ideas bubble to the top for other teachers to easily discover and use. More than a forum, the Idea Lab submissions are all installable with a single click and immediately ready for use in any classroom.
