Google Classroom Reviews

I'm not creating classrooms using Google Classroom, as I join courses that other professors have created. Our university works with Outlook and Teams, but I still use Google Classroom when joining other courses.

Indian professors are using Google Classroom extensively, so when I log into any class related to Indians, I find them using Google Classroom.

In my university, we use Moodle, which is an open-source learning management system that I think is more powerful than Google Classroom because it gives many insights. It allows me to create a pool of questions and request the system to provide questions from each pool. For example, if I have five pools, and every pool contains 100 questions, I can decide to extract only 10 questions from each pool for my students. There is a log file that I can open to verify when announcements were made and when students last logged into e-learning. This helps prove when students miss announcements because they did not log into the system. The log file is significant for both teacher and security purposes.

The features I found most valuable in Google Classroom are live chatting, sending messages, notifications, and accessing documents, which is very easy, simple, and user-friendly. In three tabs, we find everything: one for folders and files uploaded, one for chat and notifications, and the other for documents.

When I ask students to register for certain things, we always share Google Sheets for students to use. When I share documents with them, Google Sheet makes it easy for them to add information and edit. As the head of e-learning in my faculty, we conduct many audits for modules to ensure staff members are uploading documents and making announcements to students on time. Most of our work uses Google Sheets because we have to input the modules and items they should satisfy. I share the Google Sheet with my team so they can work, and I can see their progress live to know which team members are working. Sharing documents and having live document collaboration is very useful.

We are using Google Classroom for assessments, homework, and providing resources to students. We also use it for tuition and online interaction, focusing on IT subjects such as computing and programming, using applications primarily on iPads.

Google Classroom is very effective for communication and excellent for assigning homework and resources. It facilitates interactive communication and is easy to manage. The fact that it is a Google product adds to its value, especially with features like Workspace and Gemini, which are considered amazing benefits.

It is for students, for learning, assignments, and all that. Just learning management.

I don't use it as a teacher. I just support it, so I don't use it a lot as an end-user.

It is easy to integrate. Apart from the current notifications, which are really difficult to manage, I think the rest is good.

It's easy to use. Anybody can manage it and use it. It's kind of plug-and-play.

I started using the solution during COVID-19 to get access to notes from my institution. The only useful thing with the tool is that the lectures can be stored and accessed at any time, which may be a year or after a while. The stored lectures can be accessed at any time with the help of the product.

The benefit that I experience from the use of the solution is that I can access any module at any time. Whenever I pass out from my institution or when I want to pursue higher studies, I can access the previous course modules I want.

Whenever I have a business presentation, I use Google Classroom.

The most valuable feature of the solution is its performance.

I have used the solution as a student and as a teacher. We started using it when COVID-19 started. A teacher can upload courses and send the links to different students. The students can join the classes. I can upload assignments, check them, and give scores. Students can enroll in courses with a specific teacher, see assignments and quizzes, and check their scores.

A teacher can send assignments and upload results using the product. Students can check their results and type in comments if they have any queries. These are valuable features.

In the past, I have used the whole Google tenant for email. At this particular organization, we use it primarily for the Google Classroom, where the students are able to collaborate with the teacher using Google Classroom. However, email is handled by Microsoft 365. In the past, I've also used the solution for email.

Google Classroom allows us to facilitate excellent teaching and learning.

I use the solution for taking online sessions. It was used mostly during the pandemic. We use it for giving assignments and receiving submissions.

The product gives me visibility. I can see the submission times. I can see all the submissions in a central place. It is useful. I'm pretty happy with what I'm getting right now. I’m from an IT background. I am quite comfortable with the user interface. It is a useful tool.
