This August|Updates to Google classroom
We are students for about 20
years normally in our lives. But exactly it is not like that because we are learning
every day. But we get classroom experience in our school life and university
life. Do you ever think of an online classroom? Most of you may aware of Google
classroom. Here I am informing you about the updates to Google classroom those
are scheduled to come this august.
Google is introducing 4 new pages
to Google classroom namely STREAM, CLASS WORK, PEOPLE and SETTINGS. We will
talk about them one by one. So what is stream??? How can it enhance the
prevailing class experience?
Stream page is like this…It
provides a snapshot of classroom activities. Actually it is like a summary of
what is going on in classroom in this moment. Think about your physical
classroom experience. Sometimes you may lose your attention and you are
confused at a time. But you cannot go back in that situation, but this online
classroom will rescue you in such a situation. So it may be very useful thing
to those who lose their attention very badly. And also you can see what are the
due activities in next two three days if you go to this page.
Class work is another new page.
It displays the assignment details. It is not just a fact as in the stream
page, it is a description. Also there is an option called CREATE at the top of
the page. You can create quick assignments using that.
Setting page provides these
opportunities to do in your classroom. You can change your class code, you can
change stream settings, you can decide whether guardian summaries should be
available or not and you can decide whether show deleted items or not.
People page makes managing
students, co-teachers and parents. It contains teachers’ email addresses. So
you can directly contact them via e –mail. I think it is very much usable for
those who reluctant to ask questions while the lesson are going on. People page
include students’ guardians’ information and it facilitates to contact them if
available.
So those are the latest updates
to Google class rooms. Let’s get the advantage of them to the maximum.
