Educating with Google
G Suite for Education was formerly known as Google apps for Education. It still offers the same apps they always have just a different name. These apps allow us as educators to schedule, present, and use Google docs, which I personally love. Google Forms includes quizzes which are easily graded within the same program. G Suite gives educators the advantage of taking control of your classroom; communicating with your students, give them with constructive feedback when needed, index classroom documents and share assignments.
I personally have seen more students use Chrome books in the classroom than Ipads. My son has been using a his Chromebook for three years now and he loves it. My own experiences with using Google docs has been a great experience as well. For the students in my own classroom, using google docs will be a must. Being able to share the assignment and have access to the students progress is a great tool.
