More and more school work is being done and sent using technology, but the two most used apps, Google Apps and the Student Learning Hub, are impacting both teachers and students, leaving the users to decide which app is more efficient for the given assignment.

“Student Learning Hub has most of our information on there,” world geography teacher Jennifer Nelken said. “Google Apps we don’t really use that much in class.”

The Student Learning Hub holds a lot of information, allowing students to quickly and freely get the help they need for certain assignments.

“I like the Student Learning Hub better because some people might not have access to Google Docs,” freshman Zara Siddiqui said. “It’s kind of easier to find things because you just have to search for your classes and everything will come up in one spot.”

Although the Student Learning Hub is a hit, Google Apps has yet to find a big audience on campus.

“I don’t really use Google Apps and I kind of haven’t seen other students using it so I think most people rely on Student Learning Hub,” Siddiqui said.

Although Google Apps may not be used as much, teachers use the Student Learning Hub for their benefit.

“I like Student Learning Hub so that I can upload stuff for them like resources,” English teacher Kacie Krug said. “The earlier that you have been exposed to Learning Hub then that can be somewhat easier for you, but I think if you’re new coming in then it’s hard.”

Although the Student Learning Hub is more successful in providing specific information, Google Apps could have more potential for students.

“I think Google Apps is more user friendly for [students] because I think you’re more used to it,” Krug said. “I like Google Apps for turning in papers.”

Although some people may question which app is better, teachers and students can have a different perspective because one is setting the assignments and grading them and the other one is doing the work.

“Google Apps is probably more user friendly for students,” Nelken said. “Student Learning Hub is probably easier for teachers to put information on.”
