Teaching is one of the few jobs where you process your work while you are doing it. There is rarely a clean moment to stop and think. But the thoughts still come: what worked, what didn't, what you'd do differently.

Not everything that stays with you needs to be shared, structured, or turned into something formal.

Tapping the alert takes you straight to the post. Available in the new Blippit Boards app (v3.1.0+), this small feature is already saving teachers time.
