Online collaboration allows students or groups to work together without actually being face-to-face. Online collaboration keeps track of the most current version of a document and still has the previous versions available. This is a very efficient way for groups to work on documents together and keep track of changes and what is happening in a document.

Mindmap Wikipedia Content WikiMindMap is a tool to browse easily and efficiently in Wiki content, inspired by the mindmap technique. Wiki pages in large public wiki's, such as wikipedia, have become rich and complex documents. Thus, it is not always straight forward to find the information you are really looking for. This tool aims to support users to get a good structured and easy understandable overview of the topic you are looking for.

After exploring meetifyr I found it to be extremely easy to create a calendar document to set up a meeting or event. I believe I could use this tool with my co-workers in the future to help organize committee meetings within our school, and all student events like performances, games,etc.

ZCubes seamlessly integrates browsing, searching, editing, painting, freehand drawing, cursive hand-writing, audio-video media management, publishing, and much more into a pure Browser Based Platform.

It's YoutTube for Teachers!!! TeacherTube is a service that allows users, mostly educators to share educational resources (documents, images, audio & video files) for free. The sites has resources for classroom use, professional development, and even have some posted by students.

Zoho is a great tool to store work for all my different courses and assignments at school and as an easy way to access my information and share it.

I would use Office Live in my classroom by giving it to students as an option for completing their work collaboratively with other students from the comfort of their own home. I think that group work is key to helping students really grasp concepts and taking responsibility for portions of assignments so, while I would not use this as a platform for teaching or providing feedback, I would present this to my students who need a way to work together outside of school.

A.nnotate is an easy way to annotate documents online and collaborate annotating and note taking with peers. I don't think I would use this in my classroom, I think it would be better used as a personal study tool; one that the teacher could recommend to students looking for help with their study skills but I would not require it.

The account holder holds the control of this tool. A user doesn't have to download documents to the computer to view them. It has ways to plan ahead through task management, group calendars and a birds eye view of a timeline. It has a discussion board. Information can be share easily.

This is a great collaborative tool that we have used in class so you should have a little experience with it. Google doc is easy if you are familiar with a word processor program.

Its main benefit is in its openness to adaptability. Programmers can incorporate their own tools into Sakai, allowing more room to integrate individual school programs. The Sakai software includes many of the features common to course management systems, including document distribution, a gradebook, discussion, live chat, assignment uploads, and online testing.
