Google Classroom is a fantastic tool for collaboration in schools, but the requirement to use G Suite for Education was a barrier of entry for some teachers and schools. Now Google is opening up Classroom access to normal Google accounts.
Starting today, G Suite for Education administrators will be able to manage who can join classrooms, with options for personal Google accounts, G Suite accounts, and even users from other G Suite domains.
Google Classroom now available for personal Google accounts was written by the awesome team at Android Police.
