St. Columba Anglican School uses Google Apps for Education and Google Classroom to help students teach each other

We’re always working to overcome the tyranny of distance, collaborative technology helps keep us connected to the rest of the world.

Challenge

St. Columba Anglican School is out to prove that being geographically remote doesn’t prevent their students from becoming leaders. After the school implemented a "Bring Your Own Device" program, the IT staff needed an easy and uniform way to connect all of their students.

Solution

Google Apps for Education allowed all students and teachers to access the same content no matter the device. Google Classroom helped teachers save time by making it easier to create assignments using Google Apps, such as Docs.
