No matter how old we grow, we never stop learning. That’s why Google has opened up it’s educational platform, Google Classroom so that anyone on the web can create classes and teach through it.

Cross- device and genre

The platform works well across devices of all sizes; from mobile phones and tablets to notebooks and desktops. And with the new expansion plan, the platform will be able to host more classes for adults, classes focussed on soft skills, and even hobbies. This opens up a world of opportunities for educational bloggers who can now publish podcasts, and post assignments and communicate with students.

Frequent updates

Earlier in 2017, Google had allowed anyone to join classes. Previously, it was restricted to users who had an account on G Suite for Education. So it was limited to students from schools and institutions that used Google. Now though, even a layman can benefit from Google Classroom.
