Terrific Twosome
I have used several tools for connecting students to content, to each other, and to the teacher (me). Zoho looked promising; R Campus was intriguing, and MOODLE offered the flexibility that I needed. So, I am willing to use this terrific twosome this summer with my assistive technology course students.
What have been your experiences with this tool?

I certainly utilize DropBox and like the ease of use. I recruited a few people and increased my free storage space. I've yet to try DropItTo.me, but it's on my to-do list.

I have only used Zoho and Moodle in recent years. Check out my novice-review on Zoho below: Zoho Review in Tech Tool Talk I used Zoho to collaborate with grad-school classmates as it is much like the Microsoft Office Suite that I have on my school-issued laptop. It was web-based, but interchangeable. Admittedly, I prefer Google docs over Zoho.
As for MOODLE, I have used it as a student, but not as an instructor/teacher. It is user-friendly and I'm much happier with it than I am with some of the other class/course-management programs that I've experienced.

Jacqui,
Why not try Google apps or a wiki- and let them contribute :)
Moodle has a wiki of its own - but why not introduce them to eduwiki or pbwiki...

I use Google docs/apps a lot, but was unaware that Moodle has a wiki, so I'll have to try that one day. Thanks for sharing that, Maranca. Amanda

Teresa Conley replied to Teresa Conley's discussion I need your voice! What do you believe about your own efficacy for influencing student learning while working under education sanctions?"PLEASE also leave your contact information. I would like hear more about your experiences. It sounds that your previous experiences may be what I am looking to hear about and what you believe should been happening.
Thanks for your help.
