🦖 Smart board + teacher app

Give your class its own dinosaur island!

Every positive behaviour of your students hatches an egg or grows a dinosaur on the island on your smart board. You give rewards from your phone with a single tap; the whole class watches together on the island.

  • 🥚 An egg for every student
  • 💚 No punishments, no point deductions
  • 🧑‍🏫 Up to 40 students

It all starts with an egg

Every student you add to the class gets a nest and an egg on the island. Did their homework, helped a friend, tidied the classroom… Every good deed becomes points: the egg wiggles, cracks, and out comes the student's very own dinosaur.

Go on, try it: give the student a reward and watch what happens.

Your class on the island in 3 steps

1

Set up your class in a minute

Enter the number of girls and boys, and cute nicknames like PinkPaw, BraveStar and LittleStar appear on their own. Change them if you like, or just tap “OK”. The class and all the eggs are ready!

2

Connect the board with a code

Open DinoAda on the smart board and a code appears on screen. Type it on your phone and your class's island opens. Your password never goes onto the board.

3

Give rewards from your phone

Select students and tap a reward. You can reward the whole class at once, too. Made a mistake? “Undo”. The dinosaurs cheer, jump and grow on the board right away.

A journey from egg to adult

Points never go down and dinosaurs never shrink. Growth is permanent, because effort is permanent.

Collect points, unlock accessories 😎

The first accessory arrives at 250 points, then a new one at every milestone. Sunglasses, a leaf hat, a tail bow, a floating balloon, a daisy… Accessories fit each dinosaur's own size and move with it as it walks and jumps.

  • 250 Sunglasses
  • 650 Leaf hat
  • 800 Tail bow
  • 1300 Balloon
  • 1550 Daisy

The teacher can choose which unlocked accessories are worn. New accessories are added over time.

The island celebrates holidays too 🎉

On Türkiye's Republic Day, 23 April, 19 May, Teachers' Day and New Year, the island decorates itself 5 days in advance: bunting, balloons and, on national holidays, a waving Turkish flag. A birthday or report card day? You can start a celebration yourself.

Write one sentence on the banner for the whole class to see. Try it:

A living world on the board

  • Touch, rotate, zoom. Zoom in with two fingers, turn the island with one.
  • Automatic tour. When nobody is touching it, the camera follows each student's dinosaur in turn and their nickname appears below. Every child gets their moment.
  • Real time. A reward you give from your phone shows up on the board within seconds: the dinosaur cheers and jumps.
  • Pond, palm trees, ocean. Dinosaurs leave their nests to roam the island, rest and jump for joy.

Frequently asked questions

Do students need a device?

No. The island appears on the classroom smart board; the teacher gives rewards from their own phone or computer.

Who decides which dinosaur hatches?

When the egg cracks, the species is chosen on the server and spread evenly across the class. If needed, the teacher can change a student's species once (“Choose a new friend”).

Can points be deleted or go down?

No. There are no punishments or point deductions. A reward given by mistake can only be fixed with “Undo”; unlocked accessories and growth are permanent.

Does the board close when the teacher signs out?

No. The board connects with its own device identity; the teacher's password never goes onto the board. You can remove the board from the app with one tap.

What if the internet is slow?

The island shows the latest state and updates itself once the connection is back. Even if a reward is sent twice, it is applied once.

I use an iPhone, is there an app?

Open the teacher app in Safari and use “Add to Home Screen” to place it on your phone; it works like an app.

The eggs are waiting for you 🥚

Set up your class, connect the board, give the first reward. The dinosaurs take care of the rest.
