Google Classroom is an online virtual classroom, a place where students can access personalised learning resources, assignments and teacher feedback. Students will have a virtual Google Classroom for each of their timetabled lessons. Teachers will be posting learning resources and assignments throughout the period of closure, so students should ‘visit’ their classrooms regularly to access new learning opportunities. Students should review all learning resources and ‘hand in’ completed assignments so that the teacher can mark the work, providing feedback and continuing the cycle of personalised teaching and learning.
