(Very rough draft) of Google Classroom porting over example

[cansavvy]

Purpose/implementation Section

What changes are being implemented in this Pull Request?

Here's a very rough example of how you can turn an OTTR course into a Google Classroom.

You would do this because:

1. It allows you to keep track of what your students have completed -- something Leanpub and Coursera aren't really built for since they are meant for self-learners
2. It's familiar to people -- public schools often use it
3. It's free
4. Allows non-GitHub fellow instructors to help you track the students.

If you want to see what this looks like from a student's perspective, go here: https://classroom.google.com/c/NjEyNjU2ODI2MDEz?cjc=gljsqgf

These scripts need a lot more work and there needs to be more documentation overall, but I just wanted to post this as a quick example.

How these scripts would work

1. You would get yourself a Google Classroom account https://edu.google.com/workspace-for-education/classroom/
2. You would run materials_df.R script to obtain a TSV file that shows the material that would be ported over to Google Classroom. You may want to add due dates to it manually so those are also added to the Google Classroom.
3. Then interactively, when you want a new classroom to be started, you would run the port_to_google_classroom.R script.

I'm probably not going to get back to this feature. Will close.
