Easily Access Comments in Google Classroom Comment Bank

Easily Access Comments in Google Classroom Comment Bank

Whenever I am meeting with teachers, something that always comes up is teachers wishing there was a more effective and more efficient way of providing feedback to students. This is especially true for the secondary teachers I work with. I was so happy to share with them a way that they can do that!

With the updates to Google Classroom, giving students feedback has become so much easier. You can now compile a bank of comments and use them at your disposal by accessing them in the comment bank when opening a student’s document in Google Classroom. 

To quickly access all of your comments in the comment bank, type in # in the comment window and BOOM! your comments from the comment bank with be there. It will show you the first five. Once you start typing, the comments that you are looking for will appear. The great thing is all of your comments stay in your comment bank no matter what application you are in. Whether you are in Google Docs, Slides, etc. your comments are there in your comment bank.

Hopefully, this tip will save you time and make giving feedback to students a more enjoyable endeavor.
