    Made virtual learning feasible

    Date: Aug 21 2021
    Summary

    I am pleased with my experience. Virtual learning was not ideal, but Google classroom helped to make it go smoothly. Being able to mass assign lessons, but individually interact with students about their work was great.

    Great software for teachers and students

    Date: Aug 20 2020
    Summary

    Google Classroom stands out because of its integration with Google's other applications. It is cross-platform, and is a helpful tool for teachers and students to collaborate. Other wise, there aren't many features to call it an outstanding app.

    Positive

    The best feature of Classroom is how easy it is to integrate with other GSuite applications like Meet or Forms. Sharing documents and assignments is very easy. Notifications when work is assigned or graded is helpful for both students and teachers. I also like that you can see your classmate's answers after you submit yours.

    Negative

    It can be very slow at times, even on high bandwidth networks. It also lacks actual features that would allow for a seamless classroom-like experience.
