Are you faced with the challenge of doing group work in an online course?
One way to address this is to use GoogleDocs. When you are working on a file with others, you can communicate with the chat feature in real time. You can discuss your ideas and make revisions to the document simultaneously. You will be able to see what other group members are typing or editing. The revision history feature demonstrates all of the progress of the group work. For example, who has participated, which alleviates the question if everyone in the group contributed. Instructors can use the comment feature to provide feedback on group work. The instructor can create a template to use in GoogleDocs for consistency or provide guidance on a particular project.
To get started, check out this GoogleDoc: The Paperless Classroom with GoogleDocs for more helpful tips and instructions.
