Google remains on the cutting edge and the company is always making forward progress. I just love how Google listens to feedback from users.
Google Forms recently updated to include a built in quiz option. Google Classroom has a few changes as well. On August 17, 2016 new options were available. Teachers can now add and filter by topic. Teachers and students can now preview files such as PDF’s or videos without leaving the classroom.
Although I love all of these new features, my favorite is Guardian Summaries. Teachers now have another way to communicate and keep parents up to date. Simply enable “Guardian Email Summaries” for your classes; click on “Invite Guardian” beside the name of a student and enter the email address provided. Parents will receive a summary of completed assignments as well as the due dates for other assignments for each class the student is enrolled in.
This is a great way to keep parents informed and involved in the education process; and start the school year off on a positive note with parents.
