I created an account on ZOHO and made a document using the ZOHO writer. I thought things about the ZOHO writer were helpful, such as the tabs and editing resources, just as in Word or other programs. The structures were very much alike. I liked that with this program, documents can be saved online and will be open for friends or colleagues, or students and parents to open and edit without any troubles. Because of this program, the hassle with jumpdrives would not be needed. It is saved online and on my computer. The only prroblem I had with this program is that it was difficult for me to figure out how to upload a picture.
Next I explored Google Docs. First, I made a simple drawing. The program was very similar to paint. Google Docs would be good for students who are working on a visual project. They would be able to edit and review work without having to be at the same place at the same time. I did not like the fact that people can make changes to a document without permission from the group.
Overall, I think the programs could be helpful to an extent, and I do like the easier method of sharing and open editing, but I think that I would most likely use the regular Microsoft program in the classroom.
