G Suite for Education or Google Classroom?

G Suite for Education or Google Classroom? | Creative teaching and learning | Scoop.it

"G Suite for Education and Google Classroom might sound like two separate programs, but they’re actually not as different as you think ...."

Alyssa Shields's curator insight, May 29, 2018 3:10 AM
I love that Google is making more effort to be utilised in classrooms, I believe that having such a familiar name being used in classrooms would really help to gain the attention of students.
Heriberto Manriquez's curator insight, June 14, 2018 3:33 PM
Google Classroom is the next innovative breaking LMS (Learning Management System) that continues to strive and lead for all in one package for G Suite For Education. With the ability of being able to have Google Classroom ready and easily implement and share docs, sheets, slides into the classroom is an essential benefit to the course.
Jose Manuel Garza's curator insight, June 4, 2023 4:26 PM
In the classroom Google for Education is the key for successful student management and interaction. When I sit and plan my lesson for the next couple of days, the process flows easily because all I have to do is import my lesson components to Google Classroom. With Google Classroom I am able to copy and paste articles for my students to dissect and write opinions on. I can also provide links that will help them with their research and resources that are rich in content. I like to add workbook worksheet which they can manipulate by downloading with Google Docs and then they turn it in to be graded through Google Classroom. Through collaborative learning, Google Classroom enables students to use Gmail, Calendar, Docs, Sheets, Forms, Slides, and Hangouts for a serious learning experience.

Angélica Potes's curator insight, May 16, 2017 3:17 PM
In some way, today we are living the future which has got us closer to a set of technological inventions that are useful for us in the sense that they cover many of our necessities, even leisure activities. Apart from all the activities in which internet is useful, the one I consider the most important is the education. Internet and, in fact, technology serves as a bridge to reach the knowledge from the spot we are standing in an easier way. Hence, as this article explains, Blended learning which is the type of academic formation presented in a program that mixes Internet-based media with traditional classroom methods. When this happens in a classroom, we can say that the lesson is totally oriented to 21st century students from 21st century teachers. Therefore, altough this is an action that is not easy to experience is state schools in Colombia, it is something that can be built for future generations in which the state can support education with technology in the way that I already explained.
