How to Upload Work to Students in Google Classroom

Google Classroom is one of the most exciting learning platforms around today. During remote learning, it allows you to deliver assignments and announcements to your students in a safe, accessible way. When you’re back to school, Google Classroom is the perfect way to organize digital materials to deliver and differentiate instruction. In order to use Google Classroom effectively, it’s important to understand how to upload work to students.

Classwork Tab

Once you log into Google Classroom, go to the Classwork tab. This is the place to upload assignments and assign work to your students. Google listened to feedback from teachers and rolled out the Classwork tab this year to make things even more organized! 

The Classwork tab allows you to:

• Create assignments and questions
• Use topics to organize classwork into modules or units
• Order work the way you want students to see it.

Create Assignments

When you click on “Create”, you’ll see a dropdown menu. The options include:

• Quiz Assignment

If you have Chrome extensions (like Kami, a PDF reader and annotator) enabled, you may see additional options.

Uploading Assignments

The most common option to choose is assignment. After clicking on assignment, you’ll see the following menu:

First, you will give your assignment a title. Next, include instructions if applicable. I like to use the same basic instructions that I include at the beginning of the Google Doc, PDF, or Google Slide presentation I upload. Then, choose the class you want to share the assignment with. If you have multiple classes, you can select them all at once. Next, if you are differentiating assignments, you may choose specific students to share with. In addition, you may select the number of points and the due date for your assignment. Finally, you will choose the “Topic” for the assignment. This is important when it comes to organizing units in Google Classroom. If you have a rubric, you also may attach it from this screen.

Clicking on the Add button will allow you to add files from Google Drive, links, files from your computer, or YouTube videos.

In addition, the Create button gives you the option to start a new document directly from Google Classroom. 

Options include:

Assigning Google Slides

Most of the time, I prefer to deliver content via Google Slides. Slides are so versatile! You can assign a whole slide presentation for students to view for information, make a copy for each student, or allow all students to edit the presentation. This is perfect for collaboration and group work!

To assign a full slide presentation, either “Add” or “Create” the assignment, then choose one of the options applicable for the given assignment.

One assignment you might choose to post as “Students can view file” are the Daily Math Prompts . These at-home math prompts give something for students to solve and discuss with family members. They are perfect for math conversation starters at home!

When choosing “Students can edit file”, you’re giving every student in the class or group the option to add or edit. This is perfect for sharing a template or blank slide presentation where students are collaborating, solving problems together, or creating their own presentations. 

The option I use most often is “Make a copy for each student”. Students are able to edit their own individual copy of the slides, which lists their name at the top. You can then see work by clicking on the assignment in the Classwork tab. You can see which student turned in the assignment, which ones have not been submitted, and the number you’ve returned.

Assigning Certain Slides

Maybe you don’t want to assign an entire Google Slide presentation to students. For example, my Power Problems encompass enough word problems to get students through the whole year! Rather than share the Google Slide presentation in its entirety, you may choose to share one unit or several problems.

There are two ways to complete this: 

First , to assign certain slides, you can “Make a Copy” of your slide presentation and delete all the slides you don’t want students to complete. Make sure to keep your original presentation when you want to share future slides. 

On the other hand, you can select particular slides just by clicking on them within the presentation. You can then make a copy of just those selected slides. 

Once you select what slides you want to assign, you assign the Google Slide presentation the same way you would assign a full presentation.

Submitting or Turning In Work

In order for student work to appear completed in your Classwork or Grades tabs, students simply click “Turn in” to submit an assignment. 

In the grade tab, you’ll see each student’s name on the left-hand side. On the top, the assignments are listed. An assignment will be marked “missing” if it’s not turned in by the due date, “turned in” if it’s been submitted but not yet returned, and a checkmark if you returned the assignment.

Remind your students to click turn in on an assignment. Many students who have assignments listed as “Missing” may have the work completed but did not submit it properly. 

On the Classwork tab, you’ll be able to click on the “Turned in” assignments to see who submitted the work. 

If you do not have an assignment for the students to submit but want them to mark something as complete, they may mark their work as “Done”. For example, if you ask students to read an independent novel for 20 minutes or talk to their parents about a math problem. This could be used for performance or “on your honor” tasks. 

Uploading work to students in Google Classroom is simple once you get the hang of it! I love using Google Classroom to organize work and help my students keep learning and growing during this time of remote learning!

Google Classroom: Creating Assignments and Materials

Lesson 2: creating assignments and materials.

/en/google-classroom/getting-started-with-google-classroom/content/

Creating assignments and materials

Google Classroom gives you the ability to create and assign work for your students, all without having to print anything. Questions , essays , worksheets , and readings can all be distributed online and made easily available to your class. If you haven't created a class already, check out our Getting Started with Google Classroom lesson.

Watch the video below to learn more about creating assignments and materials in Google Classroom.

Creating an assignment

Whenever you want to create new assignments, questions, or material, you'll need to navigate to the Classwork tab.

In this tab, you can create assignments and view all current and past assignments. To create an assignment, click the Create button, then select Assignment . You can also select Question if you'd like to pose a single question to your students, or Material if you simply want to post a reading, visual, or other supplementary material.

This will bring up the Assignment form. Google Classroom offers considerable flexibility and options when creating assignments.

Click the buttons in the interactive below to become familiar with the Assignment form.

This is where you'll type the title of the assignment you're creating.

Instructions

If you'd like to include instructions with your assignment, you can type them here.

Here, you can decide how many points an assignment is worth by typing the number in the form. You can also click the drop-down arrow to select Ungraded if you don't want to grade an assignment.

You can select a due date for an assignment by clicking this arrow and selecting a date from the calendar that appears. Students will have until then to submit their work.

In Google Classroom, you can sort your assignments and materials into topics. This menu allows you to select an existing topic or create a new one to place an assignment under.

Attachments

You can attach files from your computer , files from Google Drive , URLs , and YouTube videos to your assignments.

Google Classroom gives you the option of sending assignments to all students or a select number .

Once you're happy with the assignment you've created, click Assign . The drop-down menu also gives you the option to Schedule  an assignment if you'd like it to post it at a later date.

You can attach a rubric to help students know your expectations for the assignment and to give them feedback.

Once you've completed the form and clicked Assign , your students will receive an email notification letting them know about the assignment.

Google Classroom takes all of your assignments and automatically adds them to your Google Calendar. From the Classwork tab, you can click Google Calendar to pull this up and get a better overall view of the timeline for your assignments' due dates.

Using Google Docs with assignments

When creating an assignment, there may often be times when you want to attach a document from Google Docs. These can be helpful when providing lengthy instructions, study guides, and other material.

When attaching these types of files, you'll want to make sure to choose the correct setting for how your students can interact with it . After attaching one to an assignment, you'll find a drop-down menu with three options.

Let's take a look at when you might want to use each of these:

• Students can view file : Use this option if the file is simply something you want your students to view but not make any changes to.
• Students can edit file : This option can be helpful if you're providing a document you want your students to collaborate on or fill out collectively.
• Make a copy for each student : If you're creating a worksheet or document that you want each student to complete individually, this option will create a separate copy of the same document for every student.

Using topics

On the Classwork tab, you can use  topics to sort and group your assignments and material. To create a topic, click the Create button, then select Topic .

Topics can be helpful for organizing your content into the various units you teach throughout the year. You could also use it to separate your content by type , splitting it into homework, classwork, readings, and other topic areas.

In our next lesson , we'll explore how to create quizzes and worksheets with Google Forms, further expanding how you can use Google Classroom with your students.

Along with instruction and assessment, assignments form the foundation of the teaching and learning process. They provide opportunities for students to practice the skills and apply the knowledge that they have been taught in a supportive environment. It also helps the teacher gauge how well students are learning the material and how close they are to mastery.

Because of the nature of assignments, managing them can get hectic. That’s why its best to use a platform like Google Classroom to help you manage assignments digitally. In today’s tip, we will discuss 48 ways that you can use Classroom to manage student assignments.

• Assignment Status – Easily check how many students turned in an assignment as well as how many assignments have been graded by going to the Classwork tab and clicking on the title of the assignment.
• Assign to Multiple Classes – Post an assignment to multiple classes by using the “for” drop-down menu when creating an assignment.
• Brainstorm – Use Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, or Drawings to brainstorm for class assignments.
• Calendar of Due Dates – Link a Google Calendar with due dates for assignments, tests, and other important dates into Classroom.
• Check Homework – Classroom makes checking homework easy with a quick glance at the assignment page. If more detailed grading is needed, just access the grading interface for the assignment.
• Choice Boards – Give students a choice in how they demonstrate what they know by creating a choice board and uploading it as an assignment. Choice boards allow students to choose between several assignments and can be created directly in Classroom, using Google Docs, or with third-party apps.
• Co-Teach Classes – Invite others to co-teach in your Classroom. Each teacher is able to create assignments and post announcements for students.
• Create Questions Before a Socratic Seminar – Create an assignment for students to develop questions before a Socratic seminar. During the collaborative process, students can eliminate duplicate questions.
• Detention Assignment Sheet – Create a detention assignment sheet using Google Docs. The assignment sheet can then be shared with the detention teacher and individual students privately through Classroom.
• Differentiate Assignments – Assign work to individual students or groups of students in Classroom.

• Directions Document – Use Google Docs to create instruction documents for assignments in Classroom.
• Distribute Student Work/Homework – Use Classroom to distribute student assignments or homework to all students, groups of students, or individual students.
• Diversify Student Submissions – Create alternative submission options for students through the assignment tool. For example, one group of students may be required to submit a Google Doc while another group is required to submit a Slides presentation.
• Do-Now Activities – Use Classroom to post Do-Now Activities.
• Draft Assignments – Save posts as drafts until they are ready for publishing.
• Feedback Before Student Submits – Provide feedback to students while their assignment is still a work in progress instead of waiting until submission. This will help the student better understand assignment expectations.
• Get Notified of Late Assignments – Select notification settings to get notified each time an assignment is turned in late.
• Global Classroom – Partner with international teachers to create a co-teaching classroom without borders where students can work on collaborative assignments.
• Graphic Organizers – Upload graphic organizers for students to collaborate on assignments and projects.

• Link to Next Activity – Provide a link to the next activity students must complete after finishing an assignment.
• Make a Copy for Each Student – Chose “make a copy for each student” when uploading assignment documents to avoid students having to share one copy of the document. When a copy for each student is made, Classroom automatically adds each student’s name to the document and saves it to the Classroom folder in Google Drive.
• Move to Top/Bottom – Move recent assignments to the top of the Classwork feed so students can find new tasks more quickly.
• Multiple File Upload – Upload multiple files for an assignment in one post.
• Naming Conventions for Assignments – Create a unique naming system for assignments so they can be easily found in the Classroom folder in Google Drive.

• Protect Privacy – Google Classroom only allows class members to access assignments. Also, it eliminates the need to use email, which may be less private than Classroom.
• Provide Accommodations – Provide accommodations to students with disabilities in Google Classroom by allowing extra time to turn in assignments, using text to speech functions, and third-party extensions for colored overlays.
• Reorder Assignments by Status – Instead of organizing assignments by student first or last name, organize them by status to see which students have or have not turned in work.
• Reuse Posts – Reuse post from prior assignments or from other Classrooms.
• See the Process – Students don’t have to submit their assignments for you to see their work. When you chose “make a copy for each student” for assignments, each student’s work can be seen in the grading tool, even if it’s not submitted. Teachers can make comments and suggestions along the way.
• Share Materials – Upload required materials such as the class syllabus, rules, procedures, etc. to a Class Resources Module, or upload assignment materials within the assignment.
• Share Resources – Create a resource list or a resource module for students.
• Share Solutions to an Assignment – Share solutions to an assignment with a collaborator or students after all assignments have been turned in.
• Stop Repeating Directions – By posting a directions document to assignments, the need to continually repeat directions is lessened, if not eliminated altogether. Keep in mind that some students will still need directions to read orally or clarified.
• Student Work Collection – Use Classroom to collect student work from assignments.
• Summer Assignments – Create summer assignments for students through Classroom.
• Templates – Create templates for projects, essays, and other student assignments.
• Track Assignments Turned In – Keep track of which students turned in assignments by going to the grading tool.
