There are many online tools you could use to record, share and store information. Here are some ideas for using Google Apps or Microsoft Office 365.

In a text document (Google Docs or Word Online):

  • brainstorm ideas (discussion guidelines, team roles, research questions, presentation ideas)

  • type your research notes

  • add comments on each other’s work so everyone can see

  • evaluate your group work in order to do better

  • build a feedback form or quiz for your audience.

In a table or spreadsheet (Google Docs, Google Sheets, Word online or Excel Online):

  • list team members and record team roles

  • list important deadlines to keep everyone on track and finish the project on time

  • keep a record of everyone’s research sources such as web page or book titles, web addresses, authors, copyright information.

Use shared folders:

  • to organise and store images, audio or video for the group’s presentation.
