Online collaboration tools

This coming week in one of my classes I will be teaching about online collaboration tools. I thought I'd share a list of some of the ones we will be looking at, and then invite you to use one of these, called Tricider, to share your ideas and vote on the ideas of others.

Here is a list of an assortment of collaboration tools:
  • Dweeber: students can help each other study
  • Google Docs: collaborate in creating document (which can include multimedia)
  • Google Presentations: collaborate in creating multimedia presentations
  • Google Sheets: collaborate in gathering and analyzing data
  • Everyslide: engage your class in your presentation, run polls
  • Padlet: collaborate by posting ideas (text, images or video) on a virtual pinboard
  • Pinterest: see how to set up to collaborate on board
  • Popplet: collaborate in creating a multimedia concept map
  • Prezi: collaborate in creating multimedia presentations
  • Realtimeboard: a real-time white board
  • Seesaw: a great blog tool for use even with very young children
  • Sumdog: have students play multiplayer education games with players worldwide
  • Trello: a tool for organizing collaborative projects
  • Twitter: To get your started, see 50 ways to teach with Twitter in the classroom
  • Voicethread : a media centric way to have conversations
  • Voxer: talk, text, send photos, send live or recorded messages to one person or entire group

So what is your favorite online collaboration tool to use as a teacher with your students (or for to have students to use with each other)? Go to my Tricider Tricision to share and vote! or (and!) respond with your ideas by commenting on this blog post. Thanks! :)
