Thing 9 - Collaboration

My school district currently only allows students to access to email accounts such as Yahoo or Hotmail. Students are constantly saving documents from home that are not able to be opened at school because of different versions of Word. Students also are often sharing computer passwords in order to work collaboratively on projects. I can see how Google Docs would be a great tool to alleviate these problems. I have tried both Zoho Writer and Google Docs, but do not have a preference at this time. I hope to play with both more to determine which one I feel is more user friendly.
The K-8 media specialist and I plan to revise the Media Center Policy and Procedure Manual next year. I can see how these collaborative tools would be great to work on this together as well as being a time saving tool to accomplish this task.
