Intro to Google Classroom: (From Google)
Classroom is part of Google Apps for Education, a free suite of productivity tools that includes email, documents and storage. More than 30+ million students, teachers, and administrators in schools around the world use Google Apps for Education. Classroom makes it easier to use Google Apps – like Docs and Drive – giving teachers more time to teach and students more time to learn.

How it works:
Classroom was designed hand-in-hand with teachers to help them save time, keep classes organized, and improve communication with students. Classroom also lets teachers create assignments, make announcements, and start class discussion.

Simplified assignment process

With Classroom, creating assignments in Google Apps for Education is much easier. You can attach a Document from Google Drive, share YouTube videos, or send website links. Set a due date for each individual assignment. After you press “Assign,” Classroom works in the background to automatically file all assignments and class materials into folders organized in Google Drive.

Class announcements & discussion

Communicate directly with your students in the real-time activity stream. Teachers can pose a question at the beginning of class, post videos for the students to watch, or share anything else important to the class.

Why should I use Google Classroom?
We asked the schools that tested Classroom to tell us the impact for teachers and students. They say that Classroom:

Is easy to set up – Teachers can add students directly or share a code with their class to join.
Saves time – Teachers can create, comment on, and grade assignments all in one place.
Improves organization – Students can see all of their assignments on an assignments page, and all class materials are automatically filed into folders in Google Drive.
Enhances communication – Teachers can send announcements and questions to the class. Students can post to the stream and help out their classmates.
Is affordable and secure – Classroom is completely free, does not contain ads, and student data will never be used for advertising. Classroom activity is restricted to the members of the class, and students can only be members of classes within their school’s Google Apps for Education domain.
