Why even digitise classroom life?
Classroom life encompasses all aspects of everyday school life that are not directly related to the subjects taught, but which play a central role in the educational monitoring of pupils: projects, comments, cross-curricular information, etc. However, this information is often scattered, sometimes forgotten and rarely valued.
In this age of digitalisation, it is time to modernise this essential component of teaching.
A digital tool like Eduka can enable you to:
- Centralise informal educational information.
- Facilitate communication between teachers in the same class.
- Promote work on cross-curricular projects.
- Improve educational continuity with families.
The challenges of classroom life encountered without digital tools
- Paper class registers are difficult to access.
- Information is lost between teachers, substitute teachers and educational staff.
- Monitoring varies from class to class.
- Visibility for families is virtually non-existent.
How a digital solution improves classroom life
1. Creation of class journals by teachers
Each teacher can record entries relating to a class or group:
- Current projects
- Educational observations
- School life information
- Useful links, shared documents, photos, homework, etc.
2. Clear and searchable organisation
- Filtering by class, group, teacher
- Addition of tags defined by the administration to structure content (#project, #language, #event)
- Quick and targeted search
3. Enhanced visibility and collaboration
- Consolidated view by class or by pupil
- Option for several teachers to contribute to the same journal
- Configurable reading and contribution rights
4. Connect with families
- Display class updates on the parent portal
- Notifications or alerts for new journal entries
- Automatic translation into the parent’s preferred language if enabled
5. Traceability and archiving
- History of entries by date, author, and class
- Option to duplicate an entry for multiple groups
Focus: Eduka’s Classroom Hub module
With Eduka, classroom life becomes a true collaborative platform between teachers, staff and parents.

Best practices for setting up a digital class journal
- Train teachers in how to use the module.
- Define a set of common tags to structure entries.
- Encourage regular posts, even if they are brief.
