Bring students, teachers, and teams together
Fast, easy collaboration is what makes Google Apps unique. Our website and document creation tools offer real-time editing, powerful sharing controls, and seamless compatibility – an ideal environment for working and learning.

attachments. Intuitive commenting aids discussion.

sites.
Google
Groups - Easier-to-manage mailing lists, discussion archives, and group aliases.
Extensible APIs - Integrate Apps with your classes' existing LMS and
student info systems to simplify sharing.
Collaborative projects really make for an excellent education experience not only because students bounce ideas off each other and improve each other's writing skils, but also because the process itself teaches them how to work well with others - a valuable skill for everyone.
