Convenient platform for eLearning!!
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Google Classroom from other similar products?
This is a good platform to connect teachers and students in a virtual environment. Last two years, the whole world faced difficult situations in day-to-day activities due to the Covid-19 pandemic. There, we experienced an interruption to traditional learning mechanisms and have to adopt eLearning in a virtual environment. In such instances, platforms like Google Classroom did a great job regarding eLearning. In this platform, we can add our materials either as a google drive folder, a file, or a link. And also, supports the creation of other Google products such as Docs, Slides, Sheets, Drawings, etc.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
Google Classroom is a simple interface that can use for education purposes. It is a totally free platform that facilitates eLearning in this pandemic situation.
What do you dislike most about this product?
Google Classroom is where students need their own Google account in order to participate. One of the main reasons that Google Classroom cannot fully replace the Learning Management System (LMS) is that it doesn鈥檛 facilitate automated quizzes or tests for learners. When all students upload their materials at once, the platform is less responsive.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Take some time to explore Google Classroom's features and settings before you start using it with your students. This will help you understand how the platform works and how to use it effectively.
Pros
- Enables Productivity
- Trustworthy
- Effective Service
- Inspires Innovation
