Teachers need easy ways to facilitate collaboration inside and outside of their classrooms. Whether they’re looking to get students together for a brainstorming session or a creative project, trying to enable real-time feedback on assignments or just simply sharing course materials, it makes sense to give educators the tools they need to manage their classrooms. There are now a host of options for collaboration out there. Many support the use of tablets in the classroom and are available for download as an app. Others are solely web-based and can be used anywhere and from any device.
Fortunately, there are a lot of free tools available to K-12 schools. Most of which have the option of being deployed at the classroom level or school-wide depending upon your need. This roundup focuses on tools that are free to sign up for. If you do choose to deploy a solution district-wide, you will probably have to pay a fee, but everything on this list is free for a teacher to register for and begin using today.
