Ready to bring collaboration tools into your classroom? Educators are looking for ways to create technology-infused learning environments designed to foster collaboration. Here are a few tools for effective collaboration and why you should adopt them.
Cloud Storage:
Need to lighten up the backpacks? Here’s an easy way, students and teachers can store and share files and projects on the cloud. Cloud storage allows for easy collaboration, no more emailing back and forth and worrying about who has the final document. Cloud collaboration allows users to share folders, documents and update any changes made in real time. Cloud Collaboration allows for instant access anywhere, on any device, with automatic back up.
Recording/Streaming:
Need to share/stream lectures or presentations? There are several benefits to incorporating this type of technology into the classroom. When there is a library of lectures available students who miss a class, or need a little extra clarification can access the lectures for improved comprehension on the subject. When students know they can access the lecture, they might be less focused on taking notes, and more inclined to participate. Streaming lectures allows for greater reach with a global audience, students would have access to more content, enabling them to expand their knowledge database.
