"Great for Classrooms!"

5/5

What do you like best about Hāpara?

I like being able to share documents with my students that automatically get turned into an individualized copy for each student. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hāpara?

Sometimes the layout is a little limiting - When creating a plan for the entire week, it can look a little cluttered. I also wish that you could remove a card from student view without deleting work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Factotum for Faculty"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Hāpara?

Easily distributes student work as a google doc, it allows me to observe where students are browsing. When integrated with the grading program Jupiter it eliminates almost all need for paper except for chosen paper-centric activities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hāpara?

Sometimes it is slow to load. Occasionally determined students find workarounds and hacks to evade scrutiny of their browsing. I don't know what you could improve, I've seen cast improvements in the 4 or 5 years we've had it at school, but I'm a Latin Teacher, not a tech wizard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Hāpara solving and how is that benefiting you?

Since I can use google docs for classwork and homework. I can use a lot more colors and graphics that would cost a lot if I printed them. Also, I can leave a lot more space on the page. as a language teacher, I want students to look at one sentence at a time. Having to compress a lot of text onto a small space to fit leaves less space for work and corrections, as well as more 'background noise' and 'static' for kids focusing o the sentence they are translating.

"Incredibly Helpful Program"

5/5

What do you like best about Hāpara?

With this program, I can easily monitor my students' work during class. I can also limit which websites they are allowed to go on during class to help them focus better on the tasks at hand. I am also able to email an entire class at once - Gmail no longer offers an easy method of creating email groups in bulk. Hapara allows the teacher to pre-schedule focus browse sessions, which has come in handy when I had a substitute and/or a test. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hāpara?

The only feature I wish was available is a way to create a recurring focus browse session. This would be particularly beneficial if I could select dates from a calendar and apply a focus session to all of those days at the same start time each day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Hāpara:

This program is incredibly easy to use once you're accustomed to it. There are a bunch of YouTube video tutorials on how to get the most out of the experience. It will also help you back up your communications to parents and administrators because you can take screenshots and track data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Hāpara solving and how is that benefiting you?

I can easily keep my students on task, so it has made classroom management and multitasking much easier! I also love that I can add students and links to a session while it is still in progress. This makes it very simple to get the whole class on the same webpage instantly rather than waiting for each student to type in a URL. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Game Changer for Your School"

5/5

What do you like best about Hāpara?

HAPARA is incredibly user-friendly! I can create groups of students to check in on specifically or look at the group as a whole. I can see what all of my students are doing and make sure they are on task. If they are not on task I can close out the unapproved tab they are in and send them a note (either one that HAPARA has created or one that I write myself) so the student knows that they need to be on task. The most amazing part is that the student does not have to be in my immediate vicinity for me to watch what they are doing online! For example, at my school, I teach 4th, 5th and 6th Science/SS/Technology. When my 6th graders are in their reading class I can still keep an eye on them and let my partner teacher know if they are not doing what they are supposed to be doing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hāpara?

The only thing that I wish was different is the ability to access their school email accounts directly from HAPARA. I have to log in as them on my computer to see if they are sending inappropriate emails. A minor detail, but it would be easier if I didn't have to complete the extra step. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Hāpara:

Use this product only if you want to be a superstar at classroom management, especially if you teach upper grades. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Hāpara solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have seen a huge decrease in off-task online behaviors since implementing HAPARA. I no longer have to walk around the room or have them face their monitors the same way. I can just check in on my computer and see all the tabs they are accessing. It helps them to be accountable when they know that I am watching their online activity. It also allows me to give them kudos for being on task and working hard! It has truly been a game-changer for our school, especially with middle school kids. I can also visit the sites they are in and this keeps me from wrongly accusing them of being off task. They might be on You Tube so it looks like they are not doing what they are supposed to be doing, but they are listening to a book or accessing a tutorial. This ability helps with behaviors because I don't have to scold anyone and everyone can keep working. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Supervise Students Online Activity"

5/5

What do you like best about Hāpara?

I really like that you can watch the students screen in real time. You can redirect them back on task right after the behavior happens. Other sites have a lag, this one does not. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hāpara?

One thing that I struggle with is that the screen pictures are so small. It's hard for us to see exactly or read exactly what they are doing. We get the general gist but sometimes have to guess. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great classroom monitoring"

5/5

What do you like best about Hāpara?

I like that I can see in real time what my students are working on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hāpara?

My dislike would be seeing that a student on 2 devices. I never figure how to remove a device nor monitor their activity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Hapara Review"

5/5

What do you like best about Hāpara?

I love that I can monitor what students are working on while I am busy working with a small group. I use the highlights section the most. Because students know I am watching, they make better decisions to stay on track. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hāpara?

Nothing really. I love the app. and that I can monitor my students and keep them on track. Maybe training on how to use the app would help me more so I can limit what the students can do in a certain time period. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Hāpara solving and how is that benefiting you?

It corrects students' being distracted and being in other apps when they're not supposed to be. I love that I can see what they are working on and if they are stuck on a specific problem for too long, I can walk over and assist them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
