Today we’re launching a native Classroom mobile app for both Android and iOS to help teachers and students be more collaborative in
the classroom and save even more paper and time:
New with the mobile app,
students and teachers can:
§ Snap a photo: Right from the
assignment page in the mobile app, students can snap a photo and
attach it to their assignment.
§ Share from other apps: Students can also
easily attach
images, PDFs and web pages from other apps to their assignments.
§ Offline caching: Class streams and
assignment information are automatically cached every time you open the app
with an Internet connection, so that you can see them when you don’t have a
connection.
We’re also launching two new desktop features to help teachers stay organized as they head into the second half of the year:
§ Teacher Assignments Page: On Classroom for
desktop, we’re launching a teacher assignments page, where teachers will be
able to get quick access to any assignment, see how many students are done and
mark assignments as reviewed.
§ Archive Classes: We also know that
classes don’t go on forever —that’s why today we’re launching the ability to
archive classes. Archiving a class will remove it from the home page and make
it read-only — teachers and class members can still view valuable information
in archived classes, but can’t make any changes or turn in assignments.
Release track:
