Tool: Google Classroom Description: Google Classroom is Google's education platform, allowing full integration of its Drive and Calendar services along with Mail in interfaces for both teacher and student, allowing teachers and students another dimension for education. Teachers can create assignments and set up automated grading, edit student work and provide comments and incorporate other education applications into Classroom. Examples of Uses: Although Google Classroom doesn't come equipped with an assessment feature, its assignments can be repurposed into assessments fairly easily. In a classroom that has access to laptops or tablets, this is a huge addition to assessment days. Along with automating grading, teachers can also grade individual questions at a time, which reduces bias in grading and makes it much easier for teachers to grade equitably.
