Google Classroom as a Digital Learning Tool

  Google Classroom is a free digital learning tool that allows students, teachers, and even parents to collaborate. Instructors are able to post assignments, announcements, and even discussion topics for students to view and complete work. Students are able to log in and see which of their peers are also working in the classroom and they are able to work together on some assignments. For example, using google docs (which is associated with google classroom), students are able to work on the same document at the same time. This is great because students are able to share their thoughts and add information to group projects which deepens their understanding of the material being learned. Instructors could also post helpful material for students to study or use on their assignments. There is also a feature that allows students to message each other and discuss their work.
