Overall Satisfaction with Google Classroom

We use Google Classroom in our faculty to share notes with students who are absent and to ensure that official notifications of assessment tasks are delivered to students simultaneously, even if they are not present to receive hard copies due to illness or other factors affecting their attendance. The main problem it solves for me is a sure guarantee that students have access to resources when they need them.
  • It allows me to share files with all of my students regardless of their location.
  • It notifies my students via email when I share a resource or file with them.
  • It allows me to verify the time and date of the release of information.
  • I don't seem to get email notification when my students post into the classroom.
  • The ability to record voice and/or video messages easily and directly into Google classroom would be great. I would love to be able to stream and store my lessons in Google Classroom!
  • It has allowed access to resources that often means saving on printing costs.
  • It has allowed students to not have to carry lots of paper/book resources in their bags.
I have not used other products.
I tried to find a solution to why I would not receive email notifications as the classroom teacher when my students posted anything in the classroom stream and I was unable to find it or any simple way to access such help if it did exist.

Do you think Google Classroom delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Google Classroom's feature set?

Yes

Did Google Classroom live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Google Classroom go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Google Classroom again?

Yes

It's ideal for sharing resources with students. It is less appropriate for classes that need intensive explicit teaching of concepts because it lacks a convenient way to record video.
