RESOURCE DESCRIPTION
Give a brief description of the technology/resource.

PDFs or create new documents and share them with others where they can do the same to work together on the project at hand.

INTEGRATION IDEA - COLLABORATION

How might you integrate this resource in a lesson plan to promote collaboration among students in your classroom, or among
students and others outside of the classroom?
This could be a helpful tool for when the students have group projects they must complete because they can do it at home and
still work together efficiently. They can still communicate with each other outside of class and have a completed product they
worked on equally.

VALUE-ADDED EXPLANATION
 Based on the “value-added rating scale” above, how would you rate the technology integration you described, using the
selected resource?
  Explain your rating based on the rubric indicators.

I would give it a rating of a 2. It isn’t a complete necessity in collaboration between students, but it certainly helps and gives them
an opportunity to be equally involved with their project or assignment. It would be mostly used by the students, and the only real
time a teacher would use it is when working with a student so they are still going to have that interaction.
