The Four C's in STEM: Collaboration with Google Drive

It's no secret that I am a huge fan of Google Drive.  I use it with clients all the time to share files and pictures.  If you've not experimented with it lately, I encourage you to as Drive is free and online and contains a word processor, spreadsheet, presentation platform, form creator and drawing creator.

With Drive, collaboration could not be easier.  Students can use their software of choice and upload their document to Drive, either in its native format or to be converted to a Google format. Or, start a new document in Drive.

Once the document is in Drive, students can share it to their team to edit and revise simultaneously.  By also sharing the document with their teacher, he/she can provide comments and feedback through the comment function. After receiving a comment, students can reply for clarification or resolve the comment, thus strengthening their digital collaboration skills.
