Introducing Student Groups in Google Classroom

What's changing

We're excited to introduce a new feature in Google Classroom that enables teachers to create groups of students to make assigning differentiated content easier. This update will allow them to quickly assign classwork to pre-defined sets of students without having to tediously select individual students.

Now, teachers can differentiate content across sub-sections of their class based on their students' needs. For example, teachers can create groups based on reading levels and as their class adapts, they can edit members of a group or delete groups within their class.

Why you'd use it

Groups in Classroom will help teachers organise, manage and understand performance in their class.

Additional details

Group names and members are only visible to teachers or co-teachers, not students.
