COLLABORATIVE TOOLS.

By: Shendel Badillo.

INTRODUCTION:

Collaborative tools can be classified into two types, which depend on the use to be made of it; The first to use is Closed Collaboration or closed content where personal scenarios such as the blog and personal web are found with collaborative tools such as the forum. In the second position you can find Communities or virtual platforms that can be classified according to their typology and the sub-streams where interactive games are found. In the third place we can find virtual projects where we find online libraries and collaborative digital books. The second type of collaborative tools are open collaboration or free content; there are the collaborative websites (wiikis) and Wikip.

t is an educational platform that works just like a social network, in the style of Facebook, Tuenti or Twitter. That it has all the advantages of this type of website, but without the dangers that open social networks have, since it is about creating a closed group between students and teachers, to share messages, links, documents, events, etc. EDMODO allows you to create a virtual space for communication with your students and other teachers, where you can share messages, files and links, a work calendar, as well as propose tasks and activities and manage them.
