Google Classroom + iPads = EASY WORKFLOW!
It seems Google Classroom is the best learning management system if you want to use your Google Apps for Education with the iPads. Yesterday, I opened my drive app, clicked the '+' sign in the upper right corner and proceeded to create a video reflection of a project. When I went to Google Classroom, to my assignment, I clicked the ADD tab, selected GOOGLE DRIVE, then selected my video...voiala, it was submitted!
