MLA Web 2.0 Course: Assignment for Week 5

These collaborative, web-based software products have enormous potential for both personal and professional use. It makes so much sense to have an easily-accessible, shared space for collaborating on research, projects, presentations and the like.

Some possible uses:

Professional committee work (sure wish I had used this approach when I was chair of the MAC Publications Committee)

Group research (I will recommend it to the docs who I am working with on a revision of a practice guideline)

Class assignments (I will be thinking of how to make use of this more in the coming year)

All in all, this is one of the most useful things I have learned so far!
