Google Classroom allows
teachers to spend less time on paperwork and more time with their students.
Starting today, multiple teachers can work and collaborate in a single
Classroom class. With the exception of deleting the class altogether,
additional teachers can perform all of the same functions as the primary
teacher, including:
§ Creating assignments and
announcements
§ Viewing and grading
submissions
§ Participating in
comments on the class’ “stream”
§ Inviting students to the
class
§ Receiving email
notifications related to the class
Teachers can also
prep for their classes in advance, saving announcements and assignments as
“drafts” and waiting to send them until they’re ready. Like in Gmail, once a
new announcement or assignment is created, it will be automatically saved as a
draft. Those drafts can then be accessed by multiple teachers, making it simple
to collaborate on prep work.
Finally, in response to teacher feedback, we’ve made two additional changes that will make Classroom easier to use:
Finally, in response to teacher feedback, we’ve made two additional changes that will make Classroom easier to use:
§ Autosaving grades -
Grades will now be autosaved as they’re entered, meaning teachers can grade
assignments over multiple sessions but still return those assignments to
students all at one time.
§ Improved notifications -
Teachers and students will now receive email notifications when private messages
are left on assignments.
