10 Tools of Collaboration Web 2.0

1.      Google Docs – this tool is for when you can upload files and choose who can access it and share. This can be helpful in class by if I have an online assignment where I assign groups to do a project each one will have a Google account and upload their own documents so I can see who’s all been doing their job. 

2.      Team Viewer – is a tool for students to who want to have connection to their PC without using a mouse you can control your PC with your phone. This is a tool that I am familiar with I have this app program in my phone and I love it this is a great collaboration tool for the students that is in technology.

3.      Animato – This tool is basically known as video uploading and editing. This software is really similar to the software off a mac computer and has the same base features for it. This you can use to edit videos music etc. For me this can be used if I want to make a highlight film for my athletes.

4.      JayCut – This software is a similar to google drive this is where students can upload images and photos to where if I have them to do an assignment I know they just won’t have random pictures the students will have to post them on a daily basis.

5.      Wetoku – This software requires a web camera for conference calls and also if I am not available for class a certain day for a big project the students can use this or any type of phone or computer with a web cam to present the project to me.

6.      Oovoo – Oovoo is a face time video chat with people around the world it has very simple usage most people log in by facebook or sign up but the students can use Oovoo to have live video conference calls if they do not live in the same household if it’s for a certain project in my class.

7.      YouTube – YouTube is a popular website and is use to find just about anything from school lessons, how to do project, and much more. My students will be using YouTube more than any other software to give them ideas.

8.      TeacherTube – This site is based for me and my students only with me having a google account I can record and upload my own videos that I know I will be absent or if I didn’t have time to finish in class the students can go on here and find what I have and if they want to go back and review from previous lessons.

9.      Blogger – Blogger is a website for where you can blog about anything this will be great for my class because if we have any type of research paper or anything the students will create a blogger through google and post and describe about the assignment and I have one and will be able to check each student.
