Google classroom is a free web service and learning
management system through which the process of sharing files is streamlined
between teachers and the students. It has been used for online classes in most parts of schools
across Bhutan during the pandemic where the contact teaching was not doable.
Google classroom provides a platform to share data and files between the tutor
and the tutee. In this rapidly developing
world where technology is advancing, children are
‘digital native’ and making things easier, teachers should be in the position to use this entire platform to
make learning meaningful.
The
world is uncertain so is the pandemic like ‘covid 19’ whereby physical contact
is strictly prohibited and at the moment, how are we going to keep our students
engaged without coming to school? Learners cannot be left to their own choice
because this is the stage that requires guidance and must be kept engaged.
Google classroom is one way to encourage children to learn and participate. Google classrooms assist the learning environment for the children by being
able to share the concept virtually. It is vital for a teacher to educate
themselves first and then, teach the use of Google classroom to the students.
