Google Opens Classroom, It's New Learning Management Tool
Back in May, Google announced the limited preview of Classroom, a tool that aims to make it easier for teachers to stay in touch with their students and to give them assignments and feedback.
Google says more than 100,000 educators from 45 countries have signed up to try it since then. Today, it is throwing the doors wide open, and anyone with a Google Apps for Education account can now use the service.
Classroom, which is now available in 42 languages, gives teachers access to a content management system that allows them to post updates and homework assignments, add and remove students from their classes, and provide them with feedback (including grades).
Unsurprisingly, the service is deeply integrated with Google Drive and the productivity applications, such as Google Docs and Slide.
