Hace un par de meses os hablamos con mucho detalle sobre cómo funciona Google Classroom, la plataforma de Google que ayuda a los profesores a gestionar sus clases.
Alfredo Corell's insight:
Es necesario utilizar Google Apps For Education (GAFE) para poderse dar de alta en Google Classroom 
Scoop.it!
There are a boatload of awesome Google tools that we use every day. And they’re free, too, which tends to be a big winner for teachers and students.
Alfredo Corell's insight:
All of the tools also integrate well with one another, have similar user interfaces, and are pretty darned easy to use, so if you can use one, you’re sure to feel right at home using many of the other tools, too. While Google’s search may be their ubiquitous tool, there are a lot of others that you may have not heard about yet.
Scoop.it!
There are a lot of web tools out there. Many of which are free or, at the very least, freemium. In other words, you can do a free trial to see if you like it.
Alfredo Corell's insight:
If you have a web tool, app, device, or other favorite product that you think should be included in this list and the database, you can add it here. It’s all free and simple enough to add your own products – add as many as you like!

Alfredo Corell's insight:
With today’s launch of the new Slides app on iOS and updates to the Docs and Sheets apps, we’re delivering on our promise to make it possible for you to work with any file, on any device, any time. Now you can use the Google Docs, Sheets and Slides apps on your iPad or iPhone and all other devices (your Chromebook, laptop, Android phone or tablet), to complete the same tasks—online or offline. In addition, you can open, create and edit native Microsoft Office files with the Google Docs suite on iOS.

Yeas! A great tool for Google Drive users! There is so to learn with google drive and this resource helps make the tool even more productive for you to use in your classroom. |
Classroom enables a teacher to create a “class” at the touch of a button. She or he can upload syllabus materials, whether text, audio or video, and send out assignments on the class news feed.
Teachers see instantly who has turned in their homework. They can start a class discussion and provide feedback and grades; students can see what’s due and what’s late. The whole package integrates with the rest of Google’s apps, like Google Docs.
Still, not everyone is ready to embrace Google’s free education applications.
