My experience with google classroom as constructive tool.

Google Classroom, for me, was the most suited application to be used between teachers and students. My experience was solely developed from the activity that I have done. The activity was on creating a classroom in google classroom.



Creating a classroom: before creating a classroom, I logged in with my google account and opened the google classroom app. Then I clicked on + sign and I am given the option to join a class or create a class. Then, I am required to fill-up the class name, section, subject and room. Inside the virtual, I have four taps:

• Stream- Here stream acts as a social platform, whatever happens in the classroom is notified. It will show the latest news about happenings in the google classroom. For, if a teacher posts an announcement, it will be shown under the stream tab or even when a teacher uploads anything a reading material or a video, it will be notified. The teacher can even use this tab to post an announcement. I have posted an announcement in my class to let the students know that I have uploaded some materials for students to read. 
• Classwork: Under the classwork tab, I can create assignment, quiz, upload material and I can even reuse my previous posts. I have uploaded a pdf reading file, a youtube video link and a web link for students to go through under the materials tab. I even uploaded an assignment task under which I used a pdf file, a video link and a web link for students to go through before doing their assignments. I even prepared an online quiz for the students to do. This was prepared as a second assignment. Inside the quiz, I have used five different question types for students to attempt. 
• People: Under this tab, I can even invite a co-tutor or students from there using their e-mail. To invite someone I can even give them the google classroom code from my profile. 
• Grades: under grades, I can view the marks of students for their assessments. 

Making of a promotional video: This was a challenging task as I had to firstly, record the video and then I had to edit it and finalize and uploaded under materials for students to go through.

Here is my promotional video. 

I would suggest my readers try out google classroom as it provides plenty of features to use to make teaching and learning easier and fun.
