Google Classroom is a fantastic tool. Once again, I'm not going to get in to everything you can do with this awesome GAFE. I will recommend grabbing a copy of Alice Keeler's 50 Things You Can Do With Google Classroom if you are looking to embrace the Google Classroom cult I have fallen so in love with. I am going to focus instead though on how I have used Classroom to help my student self asses. As mentioned in my Google Doc post, we often work as a class to create rubrics for the PBL assessments I assign. However, even when students have a say in what goes in to the rubric, it is so hard to get them to refer to that rubric after the PBL has begun. Classroom solved that problem. When I create assignments in classroom that I plan on using as summative assessments, I simply attach the rubric. Each student then gets a copy of the rubric. Before they turn the assignment in, they must assess themselves on the rubric. Sometimes I ask the students to assess along their process as well. This allows them to track their own growth. Its simple; we pick a different color each day and use that to assess our own growth.
