Using Chalkup + Google Apps for Education
What you need to know about Google Apps for Education.
• Storage & synchronization service • Host of Google Apps • Stores any file type • Google Apps for Edu • Set of productivity apps for schools
According to Google, there are now over 40 million students, teachers, and administrators
using Google Apps for Education .
What we LOVE:
• GAFE is free for schools and offers 24/7 support • Available on any device • Real-time collaborative editing
.
When workflows are cloud-based, students can connect from anywhere.What we think could be better…
Google Apps weren’t initially made for education. So in August 2014, Google unveiled Classroom. It
was their version of an LMS. .
Some teachers dug Classroom. (And that’s great!) But many of us found a shortcoming:
limited discussion capabilities. .
You could finally assign and submit work via Google (win!!) but how does the entire class connect and get
on the same page? .
We think we have a solution…
Let’s keep all of the collaborative, powerful features of GAFE, but make it easier to connect.
Chalkup integrates seamlessly w/ Google Drive, managing permissions; creating clean spaces for
assignment creation, submission, and grading; and leveraging discussion spaces and rubrics lacking in
Classroom. .
Upload anything from Drive. Assign. Submit. Grade. And (of course) discuss.
.
Everything you love about Drive. But with an extra touch.
.
It’s all about the workflow.
Same amazing Drive, different central hub to bring it all together.
