Cargo system and professor-student synchronization on google classroom

Abstract

The system's specific purpose is to automate the creation process of graduation and post-graduation subjects, as well as to manage professors and students on the Google Classroom tool from the domain g.unicamp.br. The system does not dehactivate the Classroom's manual creation process for subjects; however, such process needs the professor to send individual invitations to each student, in order for them to enter a virtual classroom. With automation, the person receiving the invitation is the professor in charge of the subject, who already creates the virtual classroom when he/she accepts it, with all students automatically enrolled. This is possible thanks to the existing interface between GGTE and DAC. This work's main purpose is to encourage the use of education technologies in Unicamp's graduation and post-graduation courses. The Classroom API was used for synchronizer encoding on JAVA language. This activity began after Unicamp's official adhesion to the software Google Apps for Education on November 30, 2015. Only two people were directly involved in this system implementation, which will potentially benefit all professors and students at Unicamp, as of the second half of 2016. In this work, we will present, in general, how the synchronizer was implemented and how it will work, by both professors and students at Unicamp.
