Follett Digital Classroom Connects Teachers, Students and Parents
New, Internet-Based Solution Integrates Seamlessly with Destiny 8.5 and Higher
Wouldn’t it be great if your teachers had one, easy-to-use
way to:
- Search Destiny for resources to update and improve lesson plans?
- Attach specific, relevant library resources to student assignments?
- Provide students with links to reference materials available in the library?
You can stop dreaming. Follett Digital Classroom can do all that and more! Follett Digital Classroom was developed by Follett Software’s sister company, Follett Digital Resources. The newest division of Follett Corporation, Follett Digital Resources offers customers digital solutions for improving the learning process.
Realizing that most of today’s classroom solutions focus on class pages and grade book functionality, Follett Digital Resources envisioned an application that gives districts and schools a better way to maximize the use of digital content and, as a result, give valuable instruction time back to teachers. “Our application was designed with teachers in mind, but built to put teachers in charge,” said Michael Johnson, Chief Operating Officer of Follett Digital Resources. “Teachers now have a tool to avoid what I call content chaos – tons of valuable resources, with no good way to find them, share them or use them. Follett Digital Classroom takes care of that problem while also providing teachers with all the tools they need to make using digital content efficient and effective.”

With Follett Digital Classroom at their fingertips, teachers use one, simple login to:

The reviews from beta version users like Bob Beringer have been overwhelmingly positive. “As a first-year teacher, I need all the help I can get when trying to manage, organize and run the classroom,” said Beringer, a high school teacher in Illinois District 300. “Follett Digital Classroom has definitely helped in all those aspects. It was a great way to keep all the students’ work organized and accessible at school or home. It was also a great way to keep the students accountable for their own work.”
