Google Classroom

Your students don't have to submit work in Google Classroom for you to get the best benefits of using it. Here are some ideas for maximizing Google Classroom for teaching and learning.

1. Google Drive Management: When you CREATE an assignment in Classroom using Google apps, not only can every student receive an editable copy, but Classroom puts all the documents into one assignment folder for you. Students also benefit from the automatic structure. Organization is key!
2. Assess Work in Progress: Teachers always have EDIT access to Google files assigned in Classroom. Easily and quickly check student progress from the assignment folder, provide feedback via Comments, Suggested Edits, or face to face.
3. Use Google Cast: Classroom can provide instant permission allowing students to cast their screens to your teacher device.

The Google EDU Training Center's resource page can help teachers get started using Google Classroom. Educators have access to video tutorials, printable guides & tips sheets, and five 45-minute online training options available through mid September.

If you're interested in learning more and need some guidance, this is a good place to start!
