            Imagine this, your teacher is having a presentation. You are in a big amphitheater, very far from your teacher, and the presentation board. You can’t pay attention to the presentation and, in your head, the information is a mess.

These days are long gone! With Nearpod, you can connect your device to your teacher’s and bring those charts and pies right next to you. Basically, every student can have his very own presentation. This way, the students won’t lose valuable information.

2.  Slack

            This software can be used in two ways. First, it will help you improve your collaboration with your colleagues. Basically, if you are on holiday, in Spain, and you want to keep to that short deadline, you can set up an online meeting with your colleagues and finish the assignment you have.

            Also, the fun part about this software is that you will never miss a party. Why? Because you will see everything your colleagues talk about and plan. Your group will be better connected and friendships will flourish.

3.  Peergrade

            Peergrade is great for teachers and students, alike. It’s great for teachers because they can evaluate their students live. The teacher won’t have to wait until the deadline to correct their students’ assignments. This way, the finished product will be of higher quality.

4.  EssayGeeks

            This is one of the best tools out there. The first tools were all about improving collaboration, presentations, and the evaluation process. This tool is totally different.

You will get plenty of information about your subject thus, you will have a firm starting point.

            Secondly, while creating your assignment, you can get help in editing and improving the quality of your content. They can restructure your composition and make it more appealing. Last but, not least, your final project or dissertation will need professional reviews.
