No, students do not need a Gmail account to use Google Classroom.
While Google Classroom is integrated with Google services, it allows students to access the platform using a variety of login methods.
Here are some ways students can access Google Classroom without Gmail:
-
Existing Google Account: Students can use an existing Google account associated with a different email address like @school.edu or @domain.com.
-
Google Workspace for Education: Schools and educational institutions often use Google Workspace for Education, which allows students to use their school-provided email addresses to access Google Classroom.
-
Guest Access: Teachers can grant guest access to students who do not have a Google account. This allows them to participate in specific classes without creating an account.
Therefore, students can access Google Classroom without a Gmail account by using an existing Google account, a school-provided account, or guest access.
