Create a Classroom or School Google+ Community


Google+ Community

A Google+ community is a forum where people with common interests come together to interact on the Web. This would be an ideal tool for schools who use Google Apps in Education. Every student or teacher in your school can set up a Google+ account (Google's version of Facebook) and join your learning community.

Features of Your Class/School Google+ Community

  • Make your community private 
  • Invite your students and other teachers to your class/school community
  • You can start a Google Hangout with your students or colleagues
