Greetings!

We're still without a full LMS and using Google Classroom as a stop gap.
Our workaround for all the folks who need to access other students and
assignments there (e.g. SPED case managers, advisors, IAs, etc.) has
teachers *Inviting* a whole bunch of folks to each and every Classroom to
facilitate this.  In addition, all teachers invite *me* to all Classrooms
so I can provide some remote tech support.  No, that last one is not the
most efficient way to do it, but it's the devil we know.

However, the new "Visit a class" feature has me really intrigued.  We
recently upped our Google license to Education Plus and this was a
surprising bonus.  It does, however, require making folks (via the admin
console) "Designated users."

So,
1.  Who is making use of this new feature?
2.  How are you handling this new, er, role via Google Admin?
3.  Pros and cons y'all have discovered?

Thanks!

DB
