Google classroom: Elegant, Simple Professional Development?
•
2 j'aime•2,922 vues
Google Classroom is presented as a potential platform for digital professional development in schools. It provides an elegant and simple interface using the Google Apps for Education platform. However, the software is still in beta and some expected features are missing. While not all professional development needs to be engaging, Google Classroom aims to make collaboration and accountability features more so. A demonstration of its management and sharing capabilities through Google Docs is provided, with notes that integration with non-Google accounts is still limited.
