A great platform for managing online education system..
Overall, I love to use this software as my daily driver. It saves my time & helps me to manage my studies in this pandemic effectively.
PROSThis software has almost everything that is required to conduct the course online. Our faculties can do Assigning courses, assignments, quizzes, share their class notes & attachments easily on this software. It has a great notification system for smartphones thus student doesn't miss out any important topic. It can also integrate many features from google service & our lecturer love this media more than other available alternatives. It has a clean UI & I love it personally.
CONSI don't find any cons for this software. But the software would be self-sufficient if it integrates a group calling feature for conducting classes like the Microsoft team.
Reason for choosing Google Classroom
Microsoft Teams has a complicated interface. It's hard to find the attachment files from different courses in that software. The classroom is more optimized & has a clean interface. More importantly, it's so organized that we don't miss the calling feature of the Microsoft team.

An easy and accessible connection between Students and Faculty
The overall experience with Google classroom is good and I have been using it for a very long time.
PROSGoogle classroom literally helps to create separate subject groups on one software and thus students can keep up with the records of the information shared by the teachers and also teachers can take assignments from the students.
CONSGoogle classroom cannot be accessed in the presence of poor network connectivity and this software also require a bit knowledge for anyone to operate

Basic Learning Management
The system is flawed but really simple to use. It’s not the best LMS but most people have some familiarity with Google and are use to its design and system. I’d like to see major improvements to this system though.
PROSI like how easy the system is to use. It is fairly straight forward and can be accessed by anyone who has the Google account. The style of the LMS looks like a social media posting site. You have 3 tabs the students can explore and posting is unlimited. There is a grade book feature with a rubric integration. It’s a good tool for essay grading and submitting documents.
CONSThe platform lacks many of the features of most LMS SYSTEMS. it does not ingrate well with complex plate risk checkers like turnitin. You have to manually add students each term as it does not integrate with other systems. If you copy a course then you loose the ability to utilize the plagiarism tool. Students also are confused by the stream where communication is posted. It also doesn’t allow you the ability to pin important documents to the top of the page.

Diverse use for students
It has been a very positive experience despite the glitches. Every year, Google improves Google Classroom.
PROSIt is very effective in creating differentiated instructions for students. You can assign different students different activities, thereby providing for all levels of learners in a classroom.
CONSThere is not enough variety of images in the forum option. Sometimes there are glitches in the system and the notification does not always pop up when students complete assignments.
Reason for choosing Google Classroom
It has other options besides Classroom. Google Meet and Google Hangouts are also very useful.
Reasons for switching to Google Classroom
It is easier to purchase a domain from Google. Microsoft Teams restricts its users to have account associated with the company.

Google Classroom best platform for Distance Learning
well, I can recommend google classroom for teacher who use for distance learning with student during covid situations. teacher not require high knowledge to use google classroom. also student are able to get their lesson and material faster than moodle.
PROS- fully integrated with the Google Features such as video, lesson, track answer, integrated to assignment as well. - work on all devices, smart phone, laptop, chrome book etc. easy for student to use. - Integrated with meeting as well for live training. - Live record with meeting and integrated to google classroom.
CONS- less features than moodle, moodle can customized the detail features than google classroom.
Reason for choosing Google Classroom
First related to the cost, and also the management interface google is more simple than other product, and fully integrated with their featues such as meeting, video, etc. Another option because google has caching server in local ISP that have enough banwidth not slow even though there have alot of student surfing the same lesson.
Reasons for switching to Google Classroom
because moodle need alot of customization and training for teacher to use, and also the bandwidth is limit as well for hosting, but with google classroom so fast because google have alot of CDN worldwide and costless as well, affordable price.

Teacher review
Overall Google classroom has helped me and my team, and I will continue to recommend to others.
PROSI love that it helps me to communicate in real-time with my students, especially throughout the pandemic, this app is a lifesaver and a life-changer for everyone. Everyone in my country uses this app and will continue to use it.
CONSVirtual learning can be challenging but due to this app my school were able to communicate with each other effectively, I did not have any issues with this app so I am just looking forward to any added features.
Reasons for switching to Google Classroom
Zoom we're not able to do the things that Google classroom does as it relates to the classroom, Google Classroom is an online classroom that has all the features of a physical classroom, or it can be set up like the physical classroom, it helps to record every daily activity as it relates to the teacher and students learn ability. So these are the reasons why I had to switch.

The most effective platform for effective E-learning
I am very much please with this platform. It has made my online teaching very much effective and efficient. It has also allowed me to portray my expertise in organizing lessons and course contents.
PROSCreating assignments, taking exams, sharing announcements, reaching out to students individually, storage of student assignment files in the linked Google account in well-structured manner, sharing of Google forms or links to resources from external sources help make educating students very efficient. Above all, it's free!! And who will not like a free utility with so many useful features.
CONSThe rubrics feature is limited to a very small number of student scripts/reports per assignment. Also, there should be an option to share audio as well.
Reason for choosing Google Classroom
It is linked to any of Gmail account that you own. Furthermore, no subscription is required for the majority of the features it provides free-of-cost.

The Perfect Classroom Aide
Google Classroom is a wonderful way to distribute writing assignments to my whole class and comes complete with spell check to make the editing process all the easier for my learning writers. I express particular gratitude for the speech-to-text feature that I know I will be using for a long time to come.
PROSOne of the many reasons why I enjoy and regularly use Google Classroom is that I can assign tasks and prompts - whether it be a simple question for my students to respond to or an essay prompt - and have all my students be able to see such assignments and complete them. Everything is automatically saved so the occasional (and inevitable) “select all, delete all” disaster can easily be fixed, even if the student logs out and back in. The “Restore previous versions” feature has saved many an essay from being lost forever. My students can write, edit, and turn in completed work. I can also monitor their progress and leave notes of guidance. Students can also join more than one “class” which is exceptionally helpful as an RSP teacher. My students can see and complete written work from both their home-room and my resource class. One particular feature has truly saved several of my students who have difficulty writing, spelling, and typing and have thus turned in incomplete and lacking work in the past. But with the speech-to-text microphone feature, my students can verbally “write” their responses and not fixate on poor spelling or get frustrated about how slow they type. They can easily express their ideas in a hassle-free way.
CONSThe features I use and the mechanics that run them all work fine. My students and I don’t get too complex or try to push any limits so no real con has presented itself.

Great Web Classroom - Google Classroom
If you've read my entire post and want a brief overview of Google Classroom, my answer is: Great! It is a worthwhile and successful application. I recommend it to those who haven't tried it.
PROSBasically using Google products is very easy. People get used to the use quickly. An easy to use and very powerful app in Google Classroom. Whether you use Google apps or not, you get used to the interface immediately. In addition, it offers you very useful tools. In the current period, distance education has gained great importance. In this process, we have used Google Classroom in many of our schools and we are very happy with the results. Our teachers use it seamlessly with their students. Assignments, course materials, exams are sent through this application. In addition, if your teachers know how to use Google Docs, Google Classroom supports Google Docs. You can share/send spreadsheets, e-documents, presentations within Google Classroom.
CONSWe have several possibilities that the app can improve. Interface should be customized according to classes. For example, middle school and high school students see the same design interface. As you can imagine, the expectations of the two levels may differ. For middle school students, homework is more important, while for high school students, exams are more important. Even this view may differ from school to school, from curriculum to curriculum. Teachers should be able to assign the same assignment to more than one class. Students should be able to receive notifications if they do not do their homework or are incomplete.

Google Classroom Changed my Teaching (for the better)
Overall, I love the ability to organize materials and assignments in a central place, by class, that students know to check for information. I can post links to videos and additional resources for extension activities that proves invaluable.
PROSEver since I switched to using Google Classroom as a primary classroom management system, my teaching life has been made so much simpler. While it was essential for running a virtual classroom during distance learning, I have found it just as useful as students returned to class. The ability to post all assignments in a central space that students are used to looking at means that I almost never hear the dreaded, "What did we do while I was absent?" question. Students who are absent know to check Google Classroom first. It also integrates nicely into our district's grading software, Synergy.
CONSOne drawback to the software is that it requires students to have a device of their own. In my district, students each have their own device that they take home, but if that is not the case, then it severely hampers the usefulness of Google Classroom.

Google Classroom as our LMS / Virtual Classroom
The most notable feature of this application is its free of use given the fact that our institution is a public one. The tracking system of the students progress is amazing!. The creation of classroom and delivering the codes and link to the students is excellent. The upload and viewing of learning resources is another strength of this platform. It also has the capability of integrating the different product and services of google. Overall, this platform is highly recommended for starter pack especially to those institution with tight budget.
CONSThe things that needs to be improved on this product is the assessment features wherein the checking of files and learners outputs is quite hard to view which sometimes leads to automatic downloads. It resulted to consume a lot of storage on my device. Another, things that needs to be improve is the pre-requisite features which requires the students to accomplish a certain topics before opening one. Lastly, is the monitoring of students access to verify whether they actually reading or doing their assignment on their own.

Maximizing Learning Potential.
Google Classroom, the overall experience has been positive. The platform is user-friendly and accessible, which helps to simplify classroom management and enhance student learning. Teachers appreciate the ability to organize and communicate with their students, while students appreciate the ability to access and submit assignments from anywhere. The collaborative features of Google Classroom have also been praised for fostering teamwork and student engagement.
PROSGoogle Classroom is a web-based platform designed to help teachers manage and organize their classroom activities, assignments, and communication with students. It has several benefits that can simplify the teaching and learning process, such as:Accessibility - Google Classroom can be accessed from anywhere with an internet connection, making it easy for teachers and students to stay connected and on top of their work.Organization - The platform offers a centralized location for all class materials, including announcements, assignments, and resources, making it easier for students to stay organized and on task.Collaboration - Google Classroom enables students to work collaboratively on assignments and projects, fostering a sense of community and teamwork.Feedback - Teachers can easily provide feedback on assignments and grades through Google Classroom, allowing for more immediate and personalized communication with students.Integration - Google Classroom seamlessly integrates with other Google tools, such as Google Drive, Docs, and Slides, making it easy to create and share content with students.
CONSTechnical Issues - Like any technology, Google Classroom can experience technical difficulties, which can be frustrating for both teachers and students. These issues can cause delays or interruptions in the learning process.Limited Customization - While Google Classroom offers some customization options, such as the ability to change the theme, it is limited in terms of customization compared to other learning management systems.

If You're Not Using GC, Get on Board!
I used many different work arounds for creating templates and having students turn work in before I started using Google Classroom, and once I made the jump it changed my life. I couldn't believe how much easier it was to send work out, keep things organized, and view everything in one place. I no longer have to deal with students losing their work, or not knowing something was due. It has made all of our lives easier and enriched the learning that takes place in my classroom on a daily basis.
PROSI can't describe how easy Google Classroom makes managing my assignments. It's the best platform for organizing work, creating templates, providing examples for students, accessing student work in real time, providing feedback and housing student work in general. It is very user friendly, and I would not be nearly as effective at my job without it.
CONSThe only feature that I can think of that I would want on a regular basis is the ability to see things from the student side of the portal as opposed to the teacher side. I often record videos and have to describe to the students what they will see even though what they are seeing on the screen is what I see. I don't think this would be a difficult feature to add. Facebook has a feature where you can see what your public profile looks like, Google Sites has a feature where you can view the published version of your site (what others see), it seems like it would be something they could offer. It won't stop me from using the software. It's just one small thing I often wish I had access to.
