My Take
I love Google Drive for my students' writing assignments. It works seamlessly with their Google accounts (hooray for one login!), and it's the perfect feedback and collaborative tool for writing. We can discuss the writing through text and audio comments, hold chats to clarify paragraphs, and share our documents with one another or the whole class.
How I Use It
I have my students write their formal papers on Google Docs, and it makes drafting so much easier on all of us. We've also used Google Docs to peer edit and brainstorm analysis ideas.

Great way to encourage collaboration in the classroom
I think this a great tool to use because it is so easy to access anywhere all you need is internet. This is also great for those students who need help with organization because everything is saved online. Overall, this is the best tool I have used and seen for collaboration. Nothing is easier than collaborating using the drive.
