Create and collaborate for free with Google Drive

My Take

Google Drive is a cloud-based collection of tools that allow students to use tools to create word processed documents, spreadsheets, presentations, surveys and drawings. Google Drive is easy to use and although does not have all the accessories of paid programs and apps, does have enough for most purposes. One of the most useful features of Google Drive is the ability to easily share your documents with someone else, who can view and edit them. You can also view and edit simultaneously with someone else, making it an excellent collaboration tool. Google Drive is a great resource for students who can't afford expensive software on their personal devices. Google Drive is also a way to store documents in the cloud--accessible from any internet connected device--which helps to eliminate forgotten homework and other issues such as "my printer was out of ink" and the like.
