Every month Google adds new features to G Suite. Some features only matter to administrators and some features only matter to business users. The complete list of new features is always available on the G Suite Updates blog. If you don’t want to scroll through that blog, here’s a summary of the new features that could matter to teachers and students.
- Add a table of contents to Google Sites.
- This only applies to the new version of Google Sites. It could be useful to those Google Sites users who have dozens of pages in their sites.
- Improved access to the G Suite accessibility settings.
- I covered this announcement here.
- A new right-click menu in Gmail.
- I wrote about this update here.
- The side access panel that you see in Google Docs now appears in Google Drive too.
- This is a small, but convenient update that makes it easier to access Google Keep, Calendar, and Tasks.
- New grammar and spelling check options are being added to Google Docs.
- Currently, these new options are only available to users whose domains are participating in the beta test.
- Jamboard has an updated UI.
- The update doesn’t change the functions of Jamboard, just the appearance of Jamboard.
