Tool Inventory | ||
1. Task | 2. Tools | 3. Reasons |
You have to lead an online presentation on the contents of your history term paper. |
Either Google Slides or Microsoft Powerpoint and a Youtube video. |
Using Youtube allows for an anytime distribution scheme instead of a one- time live presentation, and Slides and Powerpoint are the leading choices for presentation software. |
The final exam for your economics course is coming up, and you need to collect all of your (and hopefully your classmates’) online resources for a study guide. |
Google Docs |
Google Docs allows for live collaborative online editing, and most people have a Google account already, so compatibility issues wouldn’t be a problem. |
You need to create an interactive tour of Berlin for your study abroad program. |
Google Earth |
Pretty much the only way to do a tour that would allow interactivity ( using the Street View option) |
You and a group of your classmates have been asked to do a collaborative research project on how Facebook has affected the social habits of young adults |
Google Docs, Sheets, Drawings, etc. The Google Suite of products |
A universally held suite of productivity tools that almost everyone in the US has free access to would make a collaborative project much easier. |
