Tech Tips with Tibbs
February 2017
What the Tech?
Teachers, as we head towards the end of the school year please take some time to look over some way to integrate technology into your classroom. These tools can not only help to prepare students for testing but also for post secondary success. Let me know if I can help in any way.
MICROSOFT CLASSROOM IS HERE!!!!
Microsoft Classroom is your homepage for managing all of your classes. Organize multiple class sections, create and grade assignments, collaborate with other teachers in Professional Learning Communities (PLCs), and provide feedback to students.
Microsoft Classroom Overview
Assignment Management
Teachers can assign work for students to complete and turn in with due dates. Teachers can grade student submissions and even return to students for revision. Grades and feedback can be given directly within Classroom for students to see.
Calendar with Updates
When a class is created so is a calendar. Any assignments are automatically added to the class calendar for students to see. Students can set reminders and see all classes assignments from their calendar app in Office 365.
Mobile App
There is a Classroom app that allows teachers to create assignments, view work and enter grades all from your mobile device. Students can view assignments and turn in work all from the mobile app.
