In this panel, we went around the room discussing different collaborative tools we use in our classrooms.
- Spicebird runs email, calendar, and chat all in one program. Spicebird reminds me of Google Wave.
- Prezi creates very pretty presentations. I am going to experiment with this in the fall.
- …along with Dipity, which creates timelines. I like timelines.
- Transcribe Bentham crowd sources transcriptions of digitized Bentham documents.
- At some point, I brought up my experiences using PBWorks in the classroom to create wikis for my classes.
- GroupTable organizes group projects and allows document management.
- Some discussion of the lack of ease of exporting files from Google Docs. I discuss the symposiums I put together using Google Docs in graduate school.
- Zotero.
- Academia.edu could become a Linked In for academics, but not a lot of work seems to be happening with it. I barely used my page until recently.
- DHAnswers can be helpful for finding out tools.
- Comment Press incorporates review into writing. Could be a replacement for gate kept peer review.
