New Look, New Features in Google Classroom
Overview
Now that we have fully settled in to 2019, and are getting used to the routine of being back in school, our attention can shift to the program upgrades that are happening for the year. Google Classroom has done just that. Over the past few days, they have released some features that will not only completely change the look of Google Classroom, but make it much easier to customize as well. These features will be rolling out very soon, if they are not already available and visible in your district G Suite account.

New Google Classroom Themes
For as long as Google Classroom has been around, there have always been 78 themes to choose from. The Gallery is made up of 50 images, whereas there are 28 images in the Patterns. But, now, according to the release from Google, there will be 78 new themes that will be being released. It will be interesting to see if there will be a way to continue to use the current 78, or if there will be a major shakeup that includes an entirely new set of themes.
