"Google Classroom is the OUT and IN box of the Google world in digital classrooms.
It manages the digital learning process for teachers and students. It simplifies the exchange of files, sharing of links and teaching management. It is a logical step into flipped classrooms and digital based lessons".

The Alice Keeler - Google Classroom link below is a group of 49 videos, each under 2 minutes and they are labeled to make it easy to find specific information. These are great for a quick introduction or a quick review. If you are not familiar with Alice Keeler, she is a great educational technology resource! Make sure to check out her website for more EdTech Tools (http://www.alicekeeler.com/edtech-tools/).
The graphic below that lists 10 things a teacher should be able to do with Google Classroom. It is a little difficult to read, so if you click on it, it will take you to the website. It's just an idea of what you should be able to do. If you can't do some of those things, check out the videos by Alice. There is also a Google Classroom Cheat Sheet attached below for your review.
