What about Google Classroom should you know.
Google classroom is very much a helpful tool. We had an old fashion paper and a pencil. One of the articles I read this week, it talked about how Google classrooms help teachers teach more. This article is called Google Classroom: Exploring the Benefits for Teachers by Meghan Bogardus Cortez. She mentions how Google Classroom helps teachers to get back to the one thing they should be doing, which is teaching. I do see this at my high school I currently work at. Teachers are using the printers a less, and are using Google Classroom more. They use this for homework assignments and class discussions. They stopped worrying about not having enough papers for everybody. In Google Classroom, teachers can create worksheets to share with their students. She also talks about how you can share documents with your peers, which can be edited. During my college years, we only ever used Google drive to help us be able to work on projects. With the teachers at my school, they do use this tool all the time. I remember the days where I would see an assignment had been graded on Friday, but I had to wait for Monday to see why I got that grade. In Cortez's article, she also talked about how teachers can give more timely feedback. Your students will not have to wait ever again for an assignment to be given back. They could just look at Google Classroom for it. If you need help with Google Classroom, Alice Keeler has videos to help you.
