collaborative working space where teachers, students and teams can collaborate

classroom allowing teams to collaborate on new projects anywhere.

Bubbl.us is geared towards high school and college aged
students. There are many different options for this tool, but as an educator, I
struggle with the relevance unless using the team membership of this tool.
Although this app is quite slick, I believe there are other communication tools
that would align that had better safeguards and more accessibility.
