Impact Overview
This staff development was created to deliver instruction and guidance for implementing Google
Classroom. This workshop was delivered to teachers, ranging from 3rd grade to 5th grade, at
Blackshear Elementary. There were a total of 19 teachers from various subject areas; my field
supervisor, Ericka McIntosh; assistant principal, Dee Treadwell, and technology coach, Cassie
Dyal. The objective of this workshop was to deliver instruction to increase the confidence of
teachers who implement Google Classroom, as well as encourage use of Google Classroom
among teachers at the elementary level. This workshop was planned based on information and
resources obtained through the technology coach. To launch the workshop, I included a
beneficial introduction video of Google Classroom. Then, I led the participants through a step by
step tutorial with them being students. This gained their interest when they saw first-hand how
engaging Google Classroom can be for students. The participants were guided directly through
the required steps in order to complete viewing announcements, as well as completing and
submitting as assignment. Next, teachers converted over to teacher-view to create a class and
post announcements and assignments within their newly created Google Classroom. I delivered
this workshop during a professional development day for this school. The only challenge
throughout this workshop was time constraints. I only had an hour to deliver and work with the
teachers due to other scheduled events for the participants. However, we covered all aspects and
since teachers did not have an abundance of time to experiment with Google Classroom; I
followed up through email discussions. Through collaboration with Mrs. Cassie Dyal, the
planning of this workshop involved about 14 total hours.
