Google Docs

Status: Teacher Select Nomination
by Occasional Visitor on 04-10-2011 02:17 PM

I believe Google Docs is the best free resource for education. Google Docs allows students and teachers to collaborate anytime and anywhere on research papers, spreadsheets, presentations and surveys. The web-based tool eliminates compatibility issues encountered with computer based software. Features such as revision history, equation editor, translator and widgets make this tool perfect for all content areas.

 

If your school doesn't have a Google Apps for Education account, teachers can still publish documents from their personal Google Account and have students collaborate on the document without signing in. Google Docs is flexible and is always improving. Awesome tool for teaching and learning!
