19 Dec Another Favorite is Shutting Down

Last week I shared the disappointing news that Tract is closing down at the end of the year. Sadly, this morning I learned that another service that I really liked is also closing down. That service is Stash 101 Classroom (formerly known as PayGrade). 

Stash 101 Classroom/ PayGrade was a service that I used in my 9th grade Intro to Computer Science class back in February of 2020, but it could be adapted for just about any classroom setting. It was a tool for creating a classroom economy in which students earned currency for completing classroom jobs. The twist was that they could take on extra jobs or hire others to do jobs. 

So long Stash 101 Classroom/ PayGrade.
