Creating Cards

In RealBoard, Cards are individual tiles within a Section where students can document and share their work, reflections, and other relevant content. Each card represents a discrete piece of work or an individual entry related to the assignments and activities in the section.

Purpose of Cards

Cards serve several important functions:

  1. Showcase Work: Allow students to present their completed assignments, projects, or reflections in a structured and accessible format.

  2. Encourage Reflection: Provide a space for students to share their thoughts, insights, and experiences related to their tasks or learning process.

  3. Facilitate Interaction: Enable teachers/professors and peers to view, comment on, and provide feedback on the student’s work.

Key Features of Cards

  1. Title and Description: Each card has a Title and Description. The title briefly identifies the content of the card, while the description provides more detailed information.

  2. Attachments: Cards can include various relevant attachments such as Screenshots, Files, or Links relevant to the content.

  3. Comments and Feedback: Cards may have a section for comments where teachers/professors and peers can provide feedback or ask questions.

  4. Stars: Teachers/Professors can rate a card out of 5 stars based on the creativity of the card.

  5. Reactions: Students and teachers/professors can react on cards with the help of emojis.

In RealBoard, we’ve included a set of emojis for reactions to help users quickly express their thoughts and feelings about a post. These emojis— 👍 (Like), ❤️ (Love), 😂 (Funny), 😲 (Surprised), 😢 (Sad), and 😡 (Angry)— offer a range of emotional responses, allowing for a more interactive and engaging experience. By using reactions, students and teachers/professors can easily provide feedback or acknowledge a post without needing to leave a comment, making interaction faster and more fun.

Examples of Card Usage

  • Assignment Submission Card: A student submits their completed assignment by creating a card with a title like “Research Paper on Climate Change,” a description summarizing the content, and an attachment of the completed paper.

  • Personal Reflection Card: A student reflects on a group project by creating a card titled “Reflection on Group Dynamics,” with a description of their experience and a screenshot of the project’s final presentation.

Cards provide a flexible and organized way for students to present their work and for teachers/professors to review and provide feedback. They are an essential component of the RealBoard platform, helping to manage and display student contributions effectively.
