A Little Bird Told Me: Google Classroom Student Selector

Oftentimes, a website and an app, while similar in functionality, may differ with some nuance or features. Take, for example, Google Classroom. Most of us use the website to interact with our students. The app, however, has some awesome features that teachers might find useful. Case in point: The Google Classroom app for iOS and Android phones has a built-in "student selector" that can help you manage classes by selecting a name at random from your roster. Check out the tweet below from Kyle Niemis to learn more. Note: The student selector is only available on the app version of Google Classroom. Visit the Apple App Store or Google Play to install the app on your iOS or Android phone.
