Google Classroom Training on Classwork

How about test class assignment one. And please read and answer. Questions submit answers when complete in a Google Doc. Okay. So we can add a file or a link to a Google Drive document. So if we link to a Google dive document, we can go take a look at what this particular person has. It's really nothing in there, so I'm just going to because this is a fictitious person. Students can view the file edit the file make a copy for each student. No, we're just going to allow them to view it. And let's say that had a reading with additional questions, and then the students need to go and fill out the answers when they're done. And then we can schedule it to be assigned at some point in time where we can sign it right away, which is what I'm doing. Okay, and there it is. 

Now if I want to edit it, you can actually take a look and see who's turned it in or not. And believe no. Okay. So there it is. If I want to edit the assignment, I can go do that. I didn't assign a due date. So if I want to actually sign a duty, I could say march 20th. Either give it a number of points or say it's on graded. For everybody or just individual students, I can also put it in under a certain topic. So maybe this is. A homework. Assignments. And if I wanted to throw a rubric in there, I could do that. I save it. Update the assignment. Let's saving. All right. So that assignment is saved in there. Now what we can do is if we look at individual students. You can see the assignment is posted on an email new assignment test class assignment one. Jan gets a notice that says, please read and answer the questions submitted and it tells me exactly what to do. 

We can also go look at Dan, who also has a note, same exact thing. If we go look at their classrooms, so this is Jan's classroom view. She could go in and take a look at this and say, oh, there's the assignment. So she can click on that. She can go read this thing. And then. View the assignment. And when she's done, let's say she wants to add something to it. She could go to her Google Drive or upload a file. Or even create a new document. So here, because the teacher asked for them to create a document and submit it, that's what they do. Okay. So there's the document that was created I. Here is my homework. Assignment. Blah, blah, blah. You are ipsum, et cetera. And turn it. And I'll finished. Turn that in. And if we go back and look at Tommy teacher, he's sitting there and wants to take a look at student work. Refresh that page. 

Lo and behold, we have one turned in, and one assigned. So Dan student is not has not done their homework yet, but Jan student has. And I can go look at that then under there. Sign my grade. And. If I don't like it, or if I'm sorry, if I return the document, I can just return it that way, and then they get it back. Maybe I put some comments in there. As I go. Throughout, so I can say this is a great sentence. Whatever. Post that. And I can add another one, another comment wherever I like. And then return it when I'm done. So there's the assignment tool. There's a number of, there's a lot of different ways you can hand assignments in. But going back here, we can return to the classwork tab. And create another assignment. So quiz assignments. Here we put blank quiz. It's a Google form. We can go fill out that Google form just like you would any other. Have any number of different types of questions, you can have paragraph short answer, multiple choice, check boxes, and so on. 

Responses can actually be dropped right into a spreadsheet. Or that you can view them right there on the page, just like you can with a Google form. Quiz will be sent out to students. As soon as you release it. We also have questions. So this one is a nice way to set up a classroom discussion. So maybe you start with a prompt. And then please formulate a response and discuss. And then yeah. Breathe the prompt and discuss. Amongst ourselves. And of course, that up to how they manage that is up to the teacher you can add attachments that get used and then you can choose again to schedule it or ask right away. So there's the ask. You can see now there's this homework assignments category, I can create a topic area, so this would be discussions. 

There, and I can just drag this right into that one. So now under discussions, I've got a set of discussions, homework assignments I have a set of homework assignments. And you'll notice now if we go to Dan, he shows up with underclass work, there's a prompt. So I can view the question, beat the prompt and it's okay, now I can make put in a comment. I thought this chapter was very engrossing, et cetera. And then Dan can submit, now interestingly, Jan, if we go to Jan, Jen can interact, depending on how you set up your settings. You can see there's a comment right there. I can reply to N I can say, please be more specific in your comments. Et cetera and I can send that right back to him. Or I can. So those are comments just on the particular prompt, but I can also say, I thought this chapter was a perfect picture of the human condition, et cetera. 

Turn in. Okay, now I have submitted my prompt. Under Dan. Dan hasn't then put it in the wrong place. So now I'm Dan, and I'm going to copy that. Throw it right up here. And then turn that in. And now, if I can, I can go in and reload that. And take a look at my classmates answers. So there's Dan's answer. There's chance answer. So if I want to actually reply to Dan, I can do that and say, really damn. You have left me underwhelmed. Once again, dot, dot, dot dot, okay, send that off, and then. I would not encourage this sort of classroom environment in banter, but Dan might look at that and say, you know, start getting into a Jan, Jan, please be civil and more constructive with your feedback. Or something like that. Now, the teacher, of course, is going to want to be moderating this whole thing. 

So as a teacher, I can take a look at the discussion and say, okay, what's going on? We have two turned in. That's great. Dan said, that doesn't look very useful. Okay, Jen didn't really elaborate what's going on here. Oh wow, Jan, that was kind of rude. And then, okay. I think I need to get in there and have a conversation with these two. So. There's an example of the discussion. You can also throw material up there. If you want to just toss the document on here, like, you know, reading for week of four one or something like that. And then we can link to something or throw up a YouTube, whatever we want to do, throw a file up there. It's really whatever content you want to throw up there is fine. The students can download it and use it. So this page is really the classwork page is really where things happen. 

We have assignments. We have quizzes. We have questions for discussion. We have material that can be uploaded, really just those four things. And then we can create categories so that students can easily find their areas. Maybe you have quizzes in one section, homework assignments, discussions, and that sort of thing. So that's it for today. And I hope you've enjoyed the presentation. Hi.
