Collaborative Tools Blog Assignment

WebOffice is a collaboration suite that uses the web to allow others to work together in an easy and cost-effective manner.  It was designed to allow a person to share and collaborate with co-workers, etc., across the world. Working in real time, from the office or car, WebOffice organizes and manages schedules, hosts web meetings, shares documents and accesses data bases.  This collaboration tool also allows one to present proposals, conduct trainings and even share their desktop with another.  

WebOffice would not only be beneficial in an office or corporate setting but, in the classroom as well.  An educator could use this tool to conduct a project that would connect their students with another classroom on the other side of the world.  This same teacher could also post and share ideas with thousands of teachers across the country.  WebOffice would also allow a teacher to easily stay connected with students, parents, and co-workers with up-to-date assignments, newsletters, reminders, school year calendars, and parent-teacher conferences.  In addition, a teacher would be able to complement a lesson by including classroom polls.  WebOffice can be used in a myriad of ways to enhance the classroom experience for both the educator and the student.
