Google Classroom Updates!

Google Classroom is beginning to roll out some new features based upon educator and student feedback! (I say beginning because I have high hopes regarding where Classroom can go...) Keep sending them feedback for improvements you would like to see. And, if you hear another teacher mention a desired improvement, send some more feedback. Bombard them!

Here are the most recent features:
1. You can invite students to your class via Google Groups.
2. If the assignment doesn't require a document to be "turned in," students can mark assignments as "done."
3. Teachers have more control over student comments on the Stream.
4. Teachers can export grades into an Excel spreadsheet.

And, here's the BIG one..

5. Teachers can sort students by last name!

Google posted further detail on each of the updates; you may read them here if you so desire.

Keep sending Google feedback!
