Leave Student’s Emoji’s for Feedback

I think many of us wish Google Classroom allowed us as teachers to add attachments or pictures to student assignments (leave feedback!). One hack I have for this is to ask students to create a Google Drawing I can leave Bitmoji’s and other feedback on. Obviously, that has its drawbacks. But did you know you can leave emoji’s ? ? in Google Classroom Private Comments?

Mobile

The easiest way to leave an emoji in Google Classroom Private Comments is to use your phone or tablet. Emoji’s are right there in your mobile device keyboard. What student doesn’t want a fun poo ? emoji?

Search Emoji Websites

Emoji’s are NOT restricted just to your mobile device! There are websites that list emoji’s, you can copy and paste from the website to the Private Comments of Google Classroom.

Books

If you would like a book check out my book “50 Things You Can Do With Google Classroom” and “50 Things to Go Further With Google Classroom: A Student-Centered Approach.” The first book is an introduction to what you can do with Google Classroom. The second (red) book assumes you’re a Google Classroom user and are looking for ways to use Google Classroom beyond pushing out documents to students.
