This is the final post in a 3 part series on web based collaboration and brainstorming tools for educational application. In the first post, we examined some mind mapping (a.k.a. idea mapping) tools, last week we looked at some collaborative document editing applications, and this week we wrap up by checking out a free collaborative workgroup application for teachers and students, and some alternative tools. Edmodo.com is a tool that has been around for a little more than a year now, and provides workgroup functionality specifically for education, and I am going to sign up and give a trial run.
