What is Google Apps for Education?
Google Apps for Education is a suite of free productivity tools for classroom collaboration. It includes hosted email, calendar, chat and integrated communication and collaboration solutions exclusively for schools. Additionally, you can complement the core suite to meet your users’ needs, with access to dozens more Google applications.
Take Gmail to school.
Gmail’s spam protection, powerful search, and integrated calendars help you get more done.
Streamline your class.
Create, share, and grade assignments with ease. ‘Classroom’ helps you keep classes organised and improve communication with students.
Collaborate on docs.
Create and edit docs, spreadsheets, and presentations right in your browser. Multiple people can work at the same time, and every change is saved automatically.
Share in the cloud.
Save work files in ‘Drive’, access them from any device and share them instantly. No more sending attachments or merging different versions.
Share calendars.
Spend less time planning and more time doing with shareable calendars that integrate seamlessly with Gmail, Drive, Contacts, Sites, and Hangouts.
Create websites.
Launch a website for your class, your team, or a project with our easy site builder. All without writing a single line of code.
Meet face to face.
Connect any time via video, voice, or text. Use text chat for quick questions and Hangouts for group video calls, virtual office hours, and field trips.
Add on social apps.
Get social with the add-on apps Blogger, Google Groups, and Google+. Ask your IT Admin to turn on these apps for your school.
