So Google Classroom. I have never even seen
Google Classroom before, so I'm going to create it just to show you
how easy I think it's going to be. To create it I'm using
this on my iPhone. I have literally never logged into it.
I have only just heard about it but this is to show you that
it's going to be pretty easy to create a classroom. So I've done a Google search
for Google Classroom. So I've gone into Chrome and then Google
Classroom. Click on there. Google Classroom.
And now it's it's asking me do I want to try another
account? Or I'm using this exact account. I'm going to use this account
and now i'm going to create a class or join a class so usually
i imagine you're going to be joining somebody else's class
but i'm going to be creating a class create class here and the class is going
to be called uh google class room
um you know how to okay and the section
now do i need to keep the section right beginning uh right
the um beginning whoa beginning
google classroom oh this is pretty cool so this is kind of like an alternative
to zoom right how to get create
a class on um mobile okay so this will be applied
for the for the iphone uh the room i don't know
what room that means so i'm just gonna say anthony's room
here
anthony's room and then i'm just going to say create
and you can see that it's creating a class
and once that's done hooray hooray beginning the class i've got a class
code there and now what's the next thing we do well
we want to uh we want to invite others to the class
i imagine so how do you do that we're going to go
i can share something with my class okay i've got to meet link i could generate a
meet link and so what that means is i'm
going to uh and with meet video meetings you can connect with students for
distance learning can manage meet in your class settings so what that all
means is that you're sending them a link so
that they can join your class okay got it understand
and now here is where the class gets more
interesting and i'm going to skip that for here i could
i could make this i could put in a little photo here
you know what the google classroom is about
take that off my phone i could go and create a
photo here i could take a photo and and then that will just give it a bit
more personality and what that also does is it makes people realize oh yeah i'm
in the right place okay and so you can create and schedule
schedule announcements so hey we're going to be holding this class
every uh wednesday at um at
10 a.m and in this time zone and and then you can respond to student
posts i'm not going to do that we can look on classwork so this is
where you can create classwork oh i like this okay because
what i can do is i can create a video you can see this video button
here right and so i can create a video
which also could be me creating it right now
or more likely you're going to be doing this on a laptop
and you're going to be uploading an existing video
i've got documents here i've got a calendar entry that i can create
so this is all pretty good let me go back into where am i whoa
so let me go back here so i can create the calendar entry and i can access
folders here and then finally people so that's who the students are
who it is that i am inviting and i can invite them just by giving them
that class code now there's some other things here that i can put on
settings here which are the class details you've already seen those
okay around the class code can students post and comment now if you've got a big
class or if you don't know the students if you're worried that
there are going to be people coming in who are going to be putting uh
stuff that you don't want to see you don't want to see in the class
then you can turn off so this is a little bit of a security thing okay
students can comment but they can't post or else we just leave it up to the
teachers who can do the posting and commenting
okay and then the classwork on the stream what's all that mean
okay so that's when you've got notifications for your class about
what's going on what's happening and um and
and then that's it generating me oh my goodness you can grade
uh you can grade your students as well wow this is pretty nice so
so all of this is a bit of overkill for me as a business owner but
i've just shown you that you can create a google class even though i've never
even seen it before and it's not because i'm technically brilliant
i'm just saying they have made it really really easy um to do
so i'll upload this video now onto youtube
and see if it helps anybody if you haven't subscribed to my channel
