Open the course and go to the ' People' tab.

If you decide you would like to unenroll students from old courses, you can do the following: Still though, it is an option that may help. Of course, no cheating-prevention solution is guaranteed, as students can always find many ways around preventative measures. This may be an option for you if you prefer not to have students accessing content from your class in the future.įor example, this could be for academic integrity issues if you do not want students showing certain course content to new classes in future years. Tip #2 - Un-enroll students from old classesĪnother possible clean-up step is to remove students from the old classes.

When done checking an assignment you can go back to the ' To review' page and move it into the ' Reviewed' section by clicking the three-dots menu and choosing ' Mark as reviewed'.

Select those students, add a grade if still needed, and click the ' Return' button at the top to return them to the students.

Choose ' To review' from the drop-down menu.

Click the menu button in the top left corner of Classroom.

So, one of the first tips to consider is to make sure you have properly returned all the Classroom assignments to your students.

However, if you have returned the files, you are no longer the owner, so if you delete them, all it does is remove them from your Drive. If you are still the owner of the students' work, when you delete it, you are really deleting the file. This is especially critical if later you decide to clean up your Drive and delete old files. When done grading an assignment you want to make sure to return the files to your students, so the ownership of the files will revert back to the students. This is helpful for grading, but you don't want to leave it this way. When a student turns in an assignment, Google automatically changes the sharing permissions on the file (or files), making you the owner and reducing the student's rights to view-only. One of the great features of Google Classroom is how it streamlines the process for turning in work. Podcast Version: (Subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, or your favorite podcast tool.)
