They’ve clearly been hard at work, turning in more than 30 million assignments with <a href="https://www.google.com/edu/products/productivity-tools/classroom/" target="_blank">Classroom</a> since it launched six months ago. If those assignments had been on paper instead of Google Docs, they would stretch from New York to Los Angeles when laid end to end. If every assignment had taken just one minute to print out, Classroom saved 57 years that would have otherwise been spent waiting for the printer.<br /> <br /> Today we’re launching a native Classroom mobile app for both <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.classroom" target="_blank">Android</a> and <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/google-classroom/id924620788" target="_blank">iOS</a> (also available in <a href="https://play.google.com/edu?utm_medium=blog&utm_campaign=android_app#W1tbImNvbS5nb29nbGUuYW5kcm9pZC5hcHBzLmNsYXNzcm9vbSIsMSwzXV1d" target="_blank">Google Play for Education</a>) to help teachers and students connect from wherever they are, and save even more paper and time. We’re also launching two new features to help teachers stay organized as they head into the second half of the year: a teacher assignments page and the ability to archive classes.<br /> <br /> <b>With the mobile app, students and teachers can</b>:<br /> <ul> <li><b>Snap a photo</b>: Right from the assignment page in the mobile app, students can snap a photo and attach it to their assignment — whether it’s the experiment they just did for a science class, or a drawing they made of their family tree. And if they’ve forgotten their homework, they can ask someone at home to snap a photo, text it and then turn it in with the app. Of course, if the dog has actually eaten it, Classroom can’t help you. </li> </ul> <iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/C2fC7yrj984" width="640"></iframe><br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div> <ul> <li><b>Share from other apps</b>: Students can also easily attach images, PDFs and web pages from other apps to their assignments. For example, when you’re in a drawing app, you can create a graphic for an assignment. When you click “share” in that app, Classroom will come up as an option, and you can attach the graphic to an assignment. </li> </ul> <iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/XA3T_osf_FQ" width="640"></iframe><br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div> <ul> <li><b>Offline caching</b>: Even when Internet access isn’t available, students and teachers can get information about their assignments in the Classroom mobile app. Class streams and assignment information are automatically cached every time you open the app with an Internet connection, so that you can see them when you don’t have a connection. </li> </ul> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div> <br /> For the best experience using the <a href="https://support.google.com/edu/classroom/answer/6118412" target="_blank">Classroom app</a>, make sure you (or your students) also have the <a href="//www.google.com/mobile/drive/" target="_blank">Google Docs, Drive and Slides apps</a>. We’re looking forward to adding new features to the app on both iOS and Android in the coming months, so that students and teachers can get more done from any device they have.<br /> <br /> <br /> <b>Teacher Assignments Page</b><br /> <br /> We’ve heard from many teachers that they want one place to keep track of all the work they assign across all of their classes. On Classroom for desktop, we’re launching a <a href="https://support.google.com/edu/classroom/answer/6150132" target="_blank">teacher assignments page</a>. Teachers will have quick access to any assignment, track which ones they’ve reviewed and see how many students have completed their assignments.<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggVLKDaNDq2CdJugeOqUeSSNADdE6Cajdf3TA1a83_l7-3qd0JDBxTrD5MAv6pIQ7o6-o_ZZkBaVYP5QSkJnx2-RAR56SNavlOU7pza2-2HsjM0NtfYY7WU_UfgERdOEXtazqxBMaywy1E/s1600/assignments.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="490" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggVLKDaNDq2CdJugeOqUeSSNADdE6Cajdf3TA1a83_l7-3qd0JDBxTrD5MAv6pIQ7o6-o_ZZkBaVYP5QSkJnx2-RAR56SNavlOU7pza2-2HsjM0NtfYY7WU_UfgERdOEXtazqxBMaywy1E/s1600/assignments.png" width="640" /></a></div> <b>Archive Classes</b><br /> <br /> We also know that classes don’t go on forever.

They’ve clearly been hard at work, turning in more than 30 million assignments with <a href="https://www.google.com/edu/products/productivity-tools/classroom/" target="_blank">Classroom</a> since it launched six months ago. If those assignments had been on paper instead of Google Docs, they would stretch from New York to Los Angeles when laid end to end. If every assignment had taken just one minute to print out, Classroom saved 57 years that would have otherwise been spent waiting for the printer.<br /> <br /> Today we’re launching a native Classroom mobile app for both <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.classroom" target="_blank">Android</a> and <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/google-classroom/id924620788" target="_blank">iOS</a> (also available in <a href="https://play.google.com/edu?utm_medium=blog&utm_campaign=android_app#W1tbImNvbS5nb29nbGUuYW5kcm9pZC5hcHBzLmNsYXNzcm9vbSIsMSwzXV1d" target="_blank">Google Play for Education</a>) to help teachers and students connect from wherever they are, and save even more paper and time. We’re also launching two new features to help teachers stay organized as they head into the second half of the year: a teacher assignments page and the ability to archive classes.<br /> <br /> <b>With the mobile app, students and teachers can</b>:<br /> <ul> <li><b>Snap a photo</b>: Right from the assignment page in the mobile app, students can snap a photo and attach it to their assignment — whether it’s the experiment they just did for a science class, or a drawing they made of their family tree. And if they’ve forgotten their homework, they can ask someone at home to snap a photo, text it and then turn it in with the app. Of course, if the dog has actually eaten it, Classroom can’t help you. </li> </ul> <iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/C2fC7yrj984" width="640"></iframe><br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div> <ul> <li><b>Share from other apps</b>: Students can also easily attach images, PDFs and web pages from other apps to their assignments. For example, when you’re in a drawing app, you can create a graphic for an assignment. When you click “share” in that app, Classroom will come up as an option, and you can attach the graphic to an assignment. </li> </ul> <iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/XA3T_osf_FQ" width="640"></iframe><br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div> <ul> <li><b>Offline caching</b>: Even when Internet access isn’t available, students and teachers can get information about their assignments in the Classroom mobile app. Class streams and assignment information are automatically cached every time you open the app with an Internet connection, so that you can see them when you don’t have a connection. </li> </ul> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div> <br /> For the best experience using the <a href="https://support.google.com/edu/classroom/answer/6118412" target="_blank">Classroom app</a>, make sure you (or your students) also have the <a href="//www.google.com/mobile/drive/" target="_blank">Google Docs, Drive and Slides apps</a>. We’re looking forward to adding new features to the app on both iOS and Android in the coming months, so that students and teachers can get more done from any device they have.<br /> <br /> <br /> <b>Teacher Assignments Page</b><br /> <br /> We’ve heard from many teachers that they want one place to keep track of all the work they assign across all of their classes. On Classroom for desktop, we’re launching a <a href="https://support.google.com/edu/classroom/answer/6150132" target="_blank">teacher assignments page</a>. Teachers will have quick access to any assignment, track which ones they’ve reviewed and see how many students have completed their assignments.<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggVLKDaNDq2CdJugeOqUeSSNADdE6Cajdf3TA1a83_l7-3qd0JDBxTrD5MAv6pIQ7o6-o_ZZkBaVYP5QSkJnx2-RAR56SNavlOU7pza2-2HsjM0NtfYY7WU_UfgERdOEXtazqxBMaywy1E/s1600/assignments.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="490" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggVLKDaNDq2CdJugeOqUeSSNADdE6Cajdf3TA1a83_l7-3qd0JDBxTrD5MAv6pIQ7o6-o_ZZkBaVYP5QSkJnx2-RAR56SNavlOU7pza2-2HsjM0NtfYY7WU_UfgERdOEXtazqxBMaywy1E/s1600/assignments.png" width="640" /></a></div> <b>Archive Classes</b><br /> <br /> We also know that classes don’t go on forever.

The IT team may be small, but their achievements are not. And while the district is using Google for Education tools, it’s really the teachers there that make the difference. <br /><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/rYp6WBvqmeM" width="640"></iframe><br />It's because of inspiring educators, like those at Fairfield, that we work closely with teachers to build new tools made just for the classroom — to enable them to spend more time teaching & less "tech-ing". And we’re now expanding the availability of these tools, giving even more teachers new ways to engage students when school starts in the Fall.<br /><br /><b>One destination to find the right content for students</b><br />To make it easier for teachers to find content that inspires their students, <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2014/06/google-play-for-education-comes-to.html" target="_blank">we announced</a> last week that we expanded <a href="//google.com/edu/play" target="_blank">Google Play for Education</a> — creating a single destination for US K12 schools to find and distribute educational content — whether students are using Chromebooks, tablets, or both. Schools that use Chromebooks can start using the site for flexible book rentals, to distribute a selection of free Chrome apps and to share YouTube EDU videos. Administrators for Chromebooks can enable Google Play for Education today by visiting <a href="//google.com/edu/play" target="_blank">google.com/edu/play</a>. If you do this by July 15 you’ll get a $20 credit for your school to use for book rentals. <a href="//google.com/edu/play" target="_blank">Learn more</a>.<br /><br /><b>New tools to enhance Google Apps for Education</b><br />Last month we announced <a href="//google.com/edu/classroom" target="_blank">Classroom</a>, a new tool coming to Google Apps for Education. We designed Classroom side-by-side with teachers to help them better engage their students and make time-consuming tasks like managing assignments eas<span style="font-family: inherit;">ier. <span id="docs-internal-guid-006ecb22-e244-50b9-48c5-5ee6ded3703b"><span style="background-color: white; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Classroom is currently in an invite-only preview but we are working to make it available to all Google Apps for Education schools in August.</span></span> </span>In the meantime, teachers can view the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K26iyyQMp_g" target="_blank">demonstration video</a>. Administrators will also gain a new tool that saves them time: Google Apps School Directory Sync. It allows a school to export data from their student information system and quickly sync it to their Google Apps for Education domain. With this tool, it’s easy to create users, organizational units, and Google Groups, and also to keep everything in sync. <a href="https://plus.google.com/103266364845729488839/posts/1eAbVZgPTrr" target="_blank">Learn more</a>.<br /><br /><b>More value and flexibility from tablets</b><br />Based on feedback from schools, we’ve made a few changes to help schools gain more flexibility to meet classroom and student needs with tablets.

The IT team may be small, but their achievements are not. And while the district is using Google for Education tools, it’s really the teachers there that make the difference. <br /><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/rYp6WBvqmeM" width="640"></iframe><br />It's because of inspiring educators, like those at Fairfield, that we work closely with teachers to build new tools made just for the classroom — to enable them to spend more time teaching & less "tech-ing". And we’re now expanding the availability of these tools, giving even more teachers new ways to engage students when school starts in the Fall.<br /><br /><b>One destination to find the right content for students</b><br />To make it easier for teachers to find content that inspires their students, <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2014/06/google-play-for-education-comes-to.html" target="_blank">we announced</a> last week that we expanded <a href="//google.com/edu/play" target="_blank">Google Play for Education</a> — creating a single destination for US K12 schools to find and distribute educational content — whether students are using Chromebooks, tablets, or both. Schools that use Chromebooks can start using the site for flexible book rentals, to distribute a selection of free Chrome apps and to share YouTube EDU videos. Administrators for Chromebooks can enable Google Play for Education today by visiting <a href="//google.com/edu/play" target="_blank">google.com/edu/play</a>. If you do this by July 15 you’ll get a $20 credit for your school to use for book rentals. <a href="//google.com/edu/play" target="_blank">Learn more</a>.<br /><br /><b>New tools to enhance Google Apps for Education</b><br />Last month we announced <a href="//google.com/edu/classroom" target="_blank">Classroom</a>, a new tool coming to Google Apps for Education. We designed Classroom side-by-side with teachers to help them better engage their students and make time-consuming tasks like managing assignments eas<span style="font-family: inherit;">ier. <span id="docs-internal-guid-006ecb22-e244-50b9-48c5-5ee6ded3703b"><span style="background-color: white; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Classroom is currently in an invite-only preview but we are working to make it available to all Google Apps for Education schools in August.</span></span> </span>In the meantime, teachers can view the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K26iyyQMp_g" target="_blank">demonstration video</a>. Administrators will also gain a new tool that saves them time: Google Apps School Directory Sync. It allows a school to export data from their student information system and quickly sync it to their Google Apps for Education domain. With this tool, it’s easy to create users, organizational units, and Google Groups, and also to keep everything in sync. <a href="https://plus.google.com/103266364845729488839/posts/1eAbVZgPTrr" target="_blank">Learn more</a>.<br /><br /><b>More value and flexibility from tablets</b><br />Based on feedback from schools, we’ve made a few changes to help schools gain more flexibility to meet classroom and student needs with tablets. Schools told us they want students to be able to share devices so we’ve made some changes and now our <a href="//google.com/edu/tablets" target="_blank">tablets</a> can be shared with up to 5 students. We’ve also taken the first steps to make tablets compatible with standardized testing for the 2014-2015 school year, releasing a single-task-mode tool for developers so they can design apps that restrict the device for assessments only.

Also, everyone gets to give there opinion and we are all participating.</div> </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='gplus-share social-wrapper' data-href='https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2014/05/teachers-at-forefront-of-classroom.html?hl=en'> <img alt='Share on Google+' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/branding/google_plus/2x/ic_w_post_gplus_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='twitter-custom social-wrapper' data-href='http://twitter.com/share?text=Official Google Cloud Blog:Teachers at the forefront of Classroom share their experiences&url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2014/05/teachers-at-forefront-of-classroom.html?hl=en&via=gsuite'> <img alt='Share on Twitter' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_twitter_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='fb-custom social-wrapper' data-href='https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2014/05/teachers-at-forefront-of-classroom.html?hl=en'> <img alt='Share on Facebook' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_facebook_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> </div> <div class='comment-container'> <i class='comment-img material-icons'>  </i> <span class='cmt_count_iframe_holder' data-count='1' data-onclick='' data-post-url='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2014/05/teachers-at-forefront-of-classroom.html?hl=en' data-url='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2014/05/teachers-at-forefront-of-classroom.html' style='color: #4184F3;'></span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2014/05/teachers-at-forefront-of-classroom.html' data-viewtype='FILTERED_POSTMOD'></div> <a href='https://plus.google.com/112374322230920073195' rel='author' style='display:none;'> Google </a> <div class='label-footer'> <span class='labels-caption'> Labels: </span> <span class='labels'> <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Classroom?hl=en' rel='tag'> Classroom </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/customer%20love?hl=en' rel='tag'> customer love </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Gone%20Google?hl=en' rel='tag'> Gone Google </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Google%20for%20Education?hl=en' rel='tag'> Google for Education </a> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='7026338555775020801' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2014/05/previewing-new-classroom.html?hl=en' itemprop='url' title='Previewing a new Classroom'> Previewing a new Classroom </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> Tuesday, May 6, 2014 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> <div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><span class="byline-author">Posted by Zach Yeskel, Product Manager, Classroom </span><br /><span class="byline-author"><br /></span><span class="byline-author"><i>(Cross-posted on the <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2014/05/previewing-new-classroom.html" target="_blank">Official Google Blog</a>)</i></span><br /><br />As a former high school math teacher, I know all too well that teachers spend a ton of valuable time doing things other than teaching—waking up early to grade quizzes, collecting and returning piles of paper assignments, and battling copy machine paper jams. But with today’s technology it doesn’t have to be this way. Many teachers and professors have found ways to use technology to be better educators and avoid busy work. We spent the past year working closely with many educators to understand the systems they use to simplify their workloads, so they can get back to doing what they love—teaching.<br /><br />Today, in honor of <a href="http://www.ed.gov/blog/2014/05/thankateacher-and-share-on-teacher-appreciation-day/">Teacher Appreciation Day</a>, we’re announcing a preview of <a href="//google.com/edu/classroom">Classroom</a>, a new, free tool in the <a href="//www.google.com/enterprise/apps/education/">Google Apps for Education</a> suite. It helps teachers create and organize assignments quickly, provide feedback efficiently, and communicate with their classes with ease. Classroom is based on the principle that educational tools should be simple and easy to use, and is designed to give teachers more time to teach and students more time to learn. <br /><br />With Classroom, you'll be able to:<br /><br /><ul><li><b>Create and collect assignments: </b>Classroom weaves together Google Docs, Drive and Gmail to help teachers create and collect assignments paperlessly. They can quickly see who has or hasn't completed the work, and provide direct, real-time feedback to individual students.</li><li><b>Improve class communications: </b>Teachers can make announcements, ask questions and comment with students in real time—improving communication inside and outside of class.</li><li><b>Stay organized: </b>Classroom automatically creates Drive folders for each assignment and for each student. Students can easily see what’s due on their Assignments page.</li></ul><br />We know that protecting your students’ privacy is critical.
