GOOGLE CLASSROOM

            Google  Classroom  is  a  free  and  secure  educational app  by  Google.  It  provides
            easy-to-use and secure tools that help teachers and students organise their syllabus
            and enrich their learning experience. Here, online classrooms can be created, and
            teachers can distribute notes and assignments. It also helps in tracking down the
            performance of students and allows exporting students’ scores to the school’s database. Teachers
            can use the Education account to avail more of such facilities provided by Google Classroom.

            others. It has become an important tool for educators to assess the knowledge of students during
            class. Google forms are also used to give and receive feedback from students as well as parents.
