Hey Australia-based educators, ever wish you could get back 20 minutes of a 40-minute lesson? ⏰ That's exactly what St Thomas More Primary School in Australia did. They were tired of watching valuable instructional time disappear as their youngest students struggled to type in usernames and passwords. Enter the magic of Clever Badges! ✨ Poof! A quick flash of a Badge in front of the webcam, and students are instantly logged into their Chromebooks and learning apps. The results speak for themselves: - 50% of lesson time recovered - 0 login-related tickets for the IT team - 100% of students get fast, instant access As STEAM Specialist Kate Mackintosh shared, "Giving students the Clever Badge frees up a lot of time. It also enables the teachers to spend time on other things rather than logging in students."
