NOT REALLY
why this verdict
Keep paying — Google has not replaced it
Google's version overlaps, but does not finish the education job, so this one still earns its $12/mo.
- A named launch, not a vibe named, unlinked
- Video comprehension checks need to be tied to a roster. Google, February 21, 2024 — no announcement link recorded yet.
- How much of the job it covers not the job editorial call
- Parts of it. The job still needs the tool to get finished.
- Is there a free way to do it? yes
- 1 of 1 listed replacements have a usable free tier: Google Classroom.
- What the call is worth $144/yr
- $12/mo at the entry paid tier — $144 a year per seat.
