I'm really in tune with the Google Classroom concept this year. I'm fascinated by the experience with my children and I'm curious to learn more, both pros and cons and see how this is reshaping the classroom and the use of technology within it.
With my own personal experience, I see both sides of the coin. I see the positive outcomes and immediate feedback that it provides the students. I also see the cons where the use of technology is overriding the handwriting.
I am intrigued with how this method is being implemented and used in the classrooms and what sort of outcomes it will provide for the future.
Questions in the long term that I've wondered is if it will allow for students to be taught from home, similar to homeschooling curriculum. Will it replace the teacher interactions and most importantly, penmanship. As cursive is already phased out of most schools, traditional handwriting skills will lack as technology usage increases.
The google classrooms can become the good, the bad and the ugly of technology usage in school.
