Google Classroom: Updates Explained


Google Classroom went through many updates over the summer. I sent out an email back in August, but here is the quick overview if you still feel unsure about the changes.



*The three tabs at the top are now:
-Stream
- a place for quick announcements, a preview of classwork posts and discussions.

-Classwork- no longer listed in chronological order, rather listed by Topic. If you want to add things such as syllabus, materials, etc., create a post under the topic "Materials"
-People- see students enrolled and add guardians


*Settings Gear- adjust student comment abilities and guardian access
*Easier Grading- directly flip to the next document and grade directly in the document as well as use a comment bank to quickly add duplicate comments
*Copy Entire Class: the Stream will be erased as it's specific to each school year's needs and all Classwork will be saved as a "draft" so you can edit and assign as needed. All students will be removed from the prior year
Idea!- a master course could be created and copied for teachers to use around the district.

***NOTE: Use the "To-Do" option to quickly access assignments that need to be graded rather than searching for items individually
