Mobile Posting to Google Classroom as Teacher or Student




As usual, the Google Suite for Education team is working away on small improvements. Yet, they have a huge impact on education. This improvement allows both teacher and student to post media utilizing the live camera option for photo or video. The major difference here is live as happening and not from a saved location like the camera roll, as you could have uploaded saved media previously. Ultimately, this will save precious space on the end user's device!

For a teacher:


  • Add an assignment
  • Choose the paperclip icon
  • Choose option from camera



For a student:


  • View assignment
  • Choose add attachment
  • Choose Use Camera

Examples for integration of this new feature:

  • Science lab experiments
  • Real world images for discussions
  • Interviews
  • Remote locations 
  • Just in time assignment posting or responding 
  • Point of view images
  • What else can you suggest?
