Collaborative Tools

Collaborative Tools are a useful device when working on something that multiple people need to provide imput at one time. Collaborative Tools such as GoogleDocs are resources on the Internet that allow multiple people to view and edit the same document at the same time. These are useful when doing group projects when students need to work together and each student needs to put in a certain amount of imput. You can view how much each user contributed very easily using GoogleDocs. Also, they can be axcessed using different computers so students can work when they're sitting right next to each other or when each of them is at there own home. Collaborative Tools make doing group work much easier to accomplish and also easier for a teacher to grade in terms of participation.
