Zoho Projects

Zoho Projects is a social software web-page that was generated in class with a group four students. As a group of future teachers we decided that Zoho Projects is a tool we could use in being creative in delivering lesson plans. Using different social software, gives students access to different ways in which students can be creative in completing their projects. Zoho Projects is just one of many social software tools that gives students and teachers a way to participate in shared decision making and community building, and developing the leadership and technology skills of others. For me as a teacher, I would have students work as a group to complete a presentation on any science lesson using Zoho projects.

I would have students use Zoho because Zoho allows students to work on the presentation simultaneously from different locations and the presentation is stored so students and teacher always have access to it. Zoho allows me to put the due dates of projects on the calendar so that students always know when the project is due. With using the time tracker application students and teachers can track how much time students spend on projects. When Students and teachers use the chat application they can converse with each other and save their conversations to look at a later time. Because everyone has access to past chats, no one can say they didn't get the information or that they can't remember what was said because chats are stored. Zoho is a great social software for students and teachers in and out of the classroom.
