I retired from teaching at a small rural school eleven years ago, but I still occasionally sub there. I am gobsmacked by how big Google is the school.

It seems as if the lessons are presented on something called Google Classroom. Every kid is equipped with a Chromebook and many if not most assignments are done on the Chromebook and turned in, I think to Google Classroom. I don’t really know, because as a sub I don’t have access to either the lessons or how the kids did on them. Each kid and class has a unique code to allow them get into Google Classroom

Now, it may well be that the teachers, knowing there will be a sub may fill the day’s assignments to make it easier for the sub, but I still sub because I actually still enjoy teaching, and this new system makes that difficult.

How much Google is charging for all of this, I have no idea. I find it hard to believe that they are doing it all for free. What Google does with all of the information that it is gathering from all of the schools participating, I have no idea. Actually, Google likely has a much better idea of what is being taught and how well kids are learning than any other organization in the country.
