Read full description

As a teacher with Compass Classroom you can document numerous situations and events about the children in Compass Child Care. The documentation can consist of images, videos, audio, text, tags, and recorded sound for photos. All documentation is collected in a documentation theme, which can be published to Compass Child Care for further processing, documentation and statistics. Furthermore, the app contains a child mode, where the camera will be locked. This gives the child the opportunity to document from their own perspective. A user has to unlock the child mode before anything can be published. Compass Classroom is a great tool to help users create different kinds of documentation for children and parents.
