Most students in seventh grade or above are familiar with this Google tool. It lets you make a document, presentation, spreadsheet, or table, among other things. Basically, if Microsoft Office does it, this program does it too. There are some features Microsoft doesn't have. Everything in Google docs saves automatically, so that it's pretty much impossible to lose your work. You can also make a form, like a quiz, or a drawing. You can share your work with someone else, so that they can edit too. If more than one person is working on something, they can use the chat bar to collaborate in real time. I really can't see any problems with this tool.

This is the video that Google made for the program. It's just a little out of date, but still useful. media type="youtube" key="eRqUE6IHTEA" height="315" width="420"
