Zoho is a great tool! You can use it anywhere...as long as you have internet connection. This reminded me very much of a word document, but there were extra features that were certainly worth exploring. I like how on the page there are three headings: Collaboration Applications, Business Applications, and Produivity Applications. This makes it easy to locate what you need to begin your work. The applications are extensive and extremely helpful. Also, it's great to use for group work, group projects, calendar & events, notebook, etc.
Google Docs is very closely related to Zoho and its' features. It would work great for students and collaborative work that they might have to complete. The students can use the tools to work on their part of the project, and then later on the group, as a whole can add it together. This would have to be done during class though, because we can not expect all of our students to have a source of internet connection at home. Other than that, it would be a great resource for students to explore and work on.
Both Zoho and Google Docs are great tools. They are very simiar to each other as well. They are great for group work -for students ad teachers (Zoho more for an older crowd or age grop and Google Docs for the younger children) Between the two, I prefer Google Docs. It's easier for me personally, to navigate through the page and its' features. It seems to be more age friendly for my students too (K-6).
