Smooth Starts, Smooth Years: Classroom Management with Shuffle Buddy & ClassDojo 

Back-to-school season means fresh starts, new routines, and classroom management strategies that set the tone for the year ahead. In this episode of Classroom Dynamics, we’re spotlighting powerful #edtech tools designed to make your teaching life easier.

First, meet Michigan high school math #teacher Josh Pullen. After just two weeks of struggling with paper seating charts in his first year, Josh tapped into his lifelong passion for coding and built Shuffle Buddy—an app that automates seating charts with ease. When his TikTok post went viral, tens of thousands of teachers jumped on board, and now Josh is working nonstop to add new features based on real classroom feedback. His story proves one thing: when teachers solve their own problems, they often create solutions for us all.

Then, our #AI-powered hosts Bits & Bytes dig into ClassDojo, a proven app that helps teachers create a strong classroom culture from day one—and sustain it all year long.

Whether you’re a brand-new teacher or a seasoned pro, this episode is packed with fresh ideas and tools to keep your classroom running smoothly.
