Peer Feedback
In Module 3 we learned: There are many ways technology collaboration tools can be used to enhance learning. Don’t think you have to start with it all at once. Start with one or two that are manageable and move to others over time.

Wiki’s, Blogs or Collaborative Documents are a good way to start. Know the capabilities of tools and compare them to your needs, rather than comparing tools. This will help you choose the best tools for the project.

You don’t have to be an expert- Students can get help online if needed and can often teach each other elements of the tools if they investigate and learn it first.

The web is not static. It is an open forum, able to be edited and changed by students everywhere. It is up to teachers to empower students to use online tools.

Many students have digital expertise. They need to be taught how to use their expertise to experience effective digital collaboration.
