Google Classroom – spot-check student docs as they are working

[Jesse Thorstad]

For a couple years, I helped English teachers use gClassFolders to created hand in/hand out folders. Now they all use Classroom. One teacher today talked about a feature she is missing: the ability to spot-check student documents as they are working, and add comments and such.

Classroom doesn't give teachers access to docs until the student has clicked "Hand in". So is there a way for a teacher to have that spot-check access via Classroom?

I hope this makes sense!

I have to check, but can they spot check if the teacher sends out the template.

Or I know they can if they use doctopus bto send it out.

The beauty of Google Classroom is that the teacher always has editing and commenting rights.  Whether a teacher "makes a copy for each student" or the student create a new file for the assignment by using the "Add" button and starting the assignment, the teacher is automatically given editing rights.  This allows interaction between teacher and student throughout the learning process.  Once the assignment is completed and the student turns it in, then the student's rights revert to "can view" until and unless the teacher returns the assignment or the "unsubmits" the assignment.  Again, even if they unsubmit, the teacher retains "editing" rights.

Hope this helps!!

I think the problem was that she was having students start docs from scratch, not handing out something for them to edit.

Thanks everyone!

You can also go to the "about" section in classroom and click on the folder on that page. The folder is one that is created in Google Drive. Each assignment will have a folder. Any "make a copy for each student" assignments can be found there. If you are in Google Drive simply look for the "Classroom" folder. Every class you have joined or created will have a folder inside.

So why not distribute a nearly blank Doc via Classroom? Then it'd be able to be checked. Just a blank page with a space or some such?

Yes.  I agree.  I was, also, trying to point out that students can start documents "from scratch" from within Classroom by the teacher just creating an assignment with directions to use whatever filetype they wish to use.  When they click "Open" from the assignment, they, then, click to "add" and start the assignment there using whichever filetype they wish.  That, then, does all the Google sharing magic and she will be able to comment, edit, etc.  Our students only rarely go to Drive to start a file anymore.
