Thing # 13

Here is my link to the Google Drive document for my blog.  I hope you enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed exploring the different tools.

Here is a Google Drive Drawing that I created for you!  It was pretty easy and fun and I used a picture that I uploaded earlier for my blog.

Students could use Google Drive for a lot of collaborative projects.  This could include each student being responsible for a different piece of the work.  As they work and see what the rest of the students are doing they can pick pieces off of one another's work and change their own.  As well students can see other people's work and add suggestions and comments on how to improve it.  I could use this in an assignment by requiring students to make a multifaceted report about a famous economist.  Each student would be responsible for their own work as well as the quality of other students.  As they work, the teacher can check up on what they are doing.

I looked at ZoHo and compared it to Google Drive.  I still prefer Google Drive.  I just think it easier to use.  There is too much going on with Zoho and it makes things a bit confusing,  As well I like Google Drive more because there are more Google users than Zoho and this would make it easier for students to use Google Drive in a collaborative project.
