You might consider adding School Web Lockers (www.schoolweblockers.com) to your list of collaboration tools. It’s used by hundreds of schools and school districts across the U.S. for Web-based file sharing, storage and collaboration. As a paperless homework system, it provides teachers with an easy one-click method for reaching out to an entire class to distribute and collect documents in just seconds. Thanks!

Hi Ozge,
I’m really glad I came across your blog. It is really useful! So many great ideas.
My Grade 2s in Australia are working on a collaboration blog with an American class http://collaboration-corner.blogspot.com/
I borrowed the quote you posted by George Bernard Shaw to share with the students on the Collaboration Corner blog.
Keep up your great work and I look forward to following your blog!

Great article. I agree with your comments but was surprised you didn’t mention Dre Software’s BCN. It’s a great collaboration tool for small businesses. They have all the collaboration tools that I need plus web conferencing is a bonus. I like them too bc their customer service is excellent. Check them out.

For collaboration I am using proofhub and it was working amazing. It can archive projects so that my dashboard is not seen messier. They update new things which are impressive.

Excellent blog article. I just wanted to add my site to the list. I have noticed that collaborative technologies for education have been very scattered throughout the Internet. There are curriculum / resource sites, people blogging and tweeting everywhere, but finding others to collaborate with has always been somewhat challenging. I’m hoping to change that with a project I’ve been working on for over a year now called K12Advantage.com. It’s a site that encompasses all areas of K12 (Teaching / Curriculum, Facilities, Finance, Administration, Technology) under one umbrella (with their own sub sections). The site also includes a number of collaborative tools including: Forums, Blogs, One on one and group chats (including text, video and audio) with whiteboard, group document editing and desktop sharing. For convenience, users can subscribe to content through email or RSS. There really are more features than I can post here. I want the site to be driven by people working in K-12 education. Please visit this site as I welcome everyone’s feedback and contributions.

I should also mention the site is totally free.
