I like the reference to Google Docs, which allows for collaboration when preparing and editing documents.
ReplyDeleteI have never participated in an online meeting, but i can see where it would be a very useful tool for learning. I like the idea of being able to collaborate with people from all different parts of the country, or even the world. Thanks for sharing some helpful hints on how we might do this in the future.
ReplyDeleteI use Skype for meetings and to talk to my daughter in France on a daily basis and it is FREE!

Online collaboration has come a long way. I like the idea of being able to share documents with each other to get feedback. It is very helpful in locating issues and improving documents.
ReplyDeleteI have been involved in web based training within the health care organizations. In hosesty I found them to be boring at times. However that does not mean they do not serve a spot within CPE.
