About Google and Degoogling in schools (lemmy.world)

7 comments fedilink hide all child comments

Here in Italy, often schools, the educative relationship betwenn teachers and students is kept through google classroom. Once I've worked in a school that had both solutions: Moodle (the usability is very very scarce) and Google classroom. During the years I've developped an increasing grudge toward Google, because in the very beginning I've had pinned a lot of hopes in this company, naively thinking that it could have changed the world for the better (don't be evil, a multibillion company who choose this as a motto! I was hopeful and impressed): I was very naive. Now I would like to know if there are systems (because Google classroom works very fine, I have to admit) that works equally fine or even better that are disappeared under the magnitude of this monopolistic leviathan.
Could someone help me?

What's the problem with Moodle or Canvas? A lot of universities use one of these and usability-wise, they are fine.

google classroom is neat, clean and monstrously easy to use. Moodle isnt', at least the inteface implemented in my school wasn't. Correcting an essay on moodle was a utterly uncomfrotable.
