Caveat

You (and the students) need a Google Account in order to use Google Classroom. But only you need a Google Account to use Google Drive. I’ll show you both. We’ll start with Google Drive.

So, please, join my Class:

Student View

While you’re joining my class, let’s take a look at some student opinions about Google Classroom.

Now, let me introduce you to the most common types of files I share in Google Classroom. You have access to all these files when you click the “Open” button.

• Slides (PPT) – Lectures
• Sheets (Excel) – Vocabulary
• Docs (Word) – Assignments / Reviews
• Drawings – Insert charts / illustrations into Docs
• Forms – Tests, quizzes, surveys

Now, please complete the “Assignment” in the Google Doc and Turn it In using the button in the upper-right of your Doc.

This all seems well and good, but what if you can’t, or don’t want to, force all your students to use Google? The next section will give you some tips and suggestions for using Google Drive and Google Classroom, even without adding students to a class.

1. Throw away your (insecure) USB key
2. Go paperless
3. Run a more organized classroom
4. Use Google Sites and Forms for Quizzes and Homework
