Comments from those who selected
Etherpad as
one of their Top 10 Tools in 2009

My students LOVED using etherpad for collaborative editing activities. I
have blogged a lesson in which I used this tool
at
yoursmarticles.blogspot.com/2009/05/collaborative-editing-through-etherpad.html
. Students uploaded a writing assignment that
they were working on and collaboratively edited
with another classroom in this virtual space.
Etherpad also allowed me to have guest editors
participate in the process.

Realtime collaborative text tool. Students
can write, edit, compare points of view, have online
debates. I get some students putting the account into
the past tense, others adding positive bias, others
adding negative bias – all at the same time. I also use
it during exam leave for students to leave questions for
me to answer – this is better than email because the
other students then get the benefit too.
