Overall Satisfaction with Google Classroom

My school uses Google classroom to provide a place to keep all digital class materials in one place for ease of use by students. It also provides me with a grading platform that makes students submit their work instead of continually editing through Google Docs, In Google Docs a student could share their work with you as "finished," then sneakily continue to edit). I also enjoy it because it helps me organize my class into topics and post enrichment material.
  • Feedback platform: the grading and scoring feature really helps students see my comments on their work.
  • Materials organization: I can create topics for my posts and assignments so that students see the logical organization of work under the "Classwork" tab.
  • Real-time updates: the "Stream" tab allows students to see my chronological updates to their classroom.
  • Needs to be more functionally integrated with more grading platforms, specifically PowerSchool.
  • Helps create the positive communication between students and parents that our school promises
I was not involved in the decision to purchase it for our school, but I do use other Google products personally and enjoy them.
Well-suited to a classroom environment where students turn in work that can be typed. Well suited to organize classroom materials online and post videos or links that you want students to watch/use/interact with.
Less suited to classrooms where work must be done by hand. Less suited to classrooms where you don't have access to technology.
