Thing #13 - Zoho is convenient-o




After exploring some of the features of Zoho and Google Docs, I have found that both of these apps are extremely convenient for teachers and classrooms. Zoho's document feature, Zoho Writer, has a format that is very similar to Microsoft Word. This provides familiarity and ease of use. Documents can be created and easily edited and saved, as well as shared with the class or submitted directly to the teacher. Zoho Writer also has a chat feature. Students may submit questions to the teacher or collaborate with other classmates on a project. I will definitely incorporate Zoho into my classroom. It's a user-friendly, convenient, and effective tool.

With Google Docs, the user can create document, presentations, spreadsheets, forms, drawings, and tables. All of these can be saved and shared. I explored the drawing tool and made the image above. Teachers can use this tool to make signs for their classroom. All of the features of Google Docs are extremely useful for any teacher. The convenience of this is that documents can be easily accessible from any computer or iPad.
