3 Ways to Use Otus on the First Day of School

Author: Keith Westman | Blog |

As you begin to plan for the 2019-20 school year, we wanted to share a few ideas on how you could use Otus on the first day of school:

Idea #1: Have students complete the Thrively Strengths Assessment

Instead of having students complete a traditional “get-to-know-you” survey, get to know your students by having them complete the Thrively self-assessment so that you see each student’s strengths and interests in the Student Profile in Otus.

Idea #2: Create positive/negative recognitions with your class

As a class, decide what 3-5 positive and negative behaviors you want to track throughout the year. Then, add them to Otus so that you can monitor more than just academic performance within Otus.

Idea #3: Have students set a BIG goal for the year using the Blog

Use the blog feature to have your students set a goal for the coming school year.
