The Online Classroom

The following videos provide a comprehensive look into the usage of Google Classroom, primarily targeting the students who are required to complete assignments and stay up to date on anything the teacher provides. Please watch them for any information you may not already know so as to build on your individual path to success in the classroom.

What's the Purpose?

2020 requires a different style of teaching that uses modern software and methods to create environments and lessons more conducive to success. As a teacher, one must do his or her best to create this environment to ensure the success of every individual under his or her tutelage. You as a student must work with this environment to succeed.

Getting Started

Google classroom is the go-to tool for many flipped learning environments, as it allows for easy online assignments and interaction with groups of students by the teacher. This video will show you how to get logged in and join a Google Classroom.

Creating and Uploading for Assignments

Any teacher needs to know how to get their Google Classroom running with assignments, tests, and anything else he or she may desire. You as the student have to complete these. This video will show you how to start your homework online.

Checking Assignments

One of the many jobs held by students is to do homework assigned by teachers. This video will show you how to check to progress toward completion of an assignment, as well as how to show your teacher you are finished and ready for grading.

Dealing with PDFs

A teacher may upload a PDF file to the classroom, which can lead to problems depending on what they want you to do. You may need to print, or you can use a nifty program to draw on the PDF itself. This video will explain how to do the second option.

Tips for Students

If your assignments are not immediately due, keep a checklist of what you need to complete and when it needs done.
If you teacher assigns a lot of things into the stream, use "Control-F" to search for older ones.
Use private comments that go directly to the teacher if you want to ask something privately about an assignment.
Accidentally submitting an assignment before finished is okay! Most assignments can be un-submitted before due.
Set up custom notifications to stay on track with new assignments, announcements, and teacher comments.
Classroom links to your Google Drive! Stay organized with folders for your work.
