Collaboration and Communication Apps Review Assignment Instructions
Collaboration and communication apps have become ubiquitous with everyday functioning but there can be both risks and benefits to using these web-based tools, especially for children and teens. Apps noted as dangerous for children and teens include Snapchat, Whisper, Blendr, and WhatsApp, yet several of these apps can be used to good advantage for teaching and learning.
In this assignment, you will investigate and gain experience in the use of 2 collaborative/communication apps for personal, pedagogical, and/or professional purposes providing evidence of engagement with at least 2 other individuals. Choose from apps such as Marco Polo, VoiceThreads, #GroupMe, Hangouts, etc.
Then, you will identify 5 or more apps that are of particular concern for educators and parents, revealing both the perceived benefits and the possible or likely risks when used by school age students. Using a site like Wix.com, Site123.com, or Smore.com, you will publish your findings to a webpage in blog type or newsletter form with descriptions, warnings, safeguards, and links.
For each of the 5 apps, provide a brief description. Then, using knowledge gleaned from experience, from current professional literature, and from current scholarly articles (published within the last 5 years), discuss warnings and safeguards that should be put in place when using the app for teaching and/or learning purposes.
List the apps reviewed and discuss each. Include the following:
· Description
· Warnings
· Safeguards
· Links to the app and other helpful resources

See full FAQWe complete each paper from scratch, and in order to make you feel safe regarding its authenticity, we check our content for plagiarism before its delivery. To do that, we use our in-house software, which can find not only copy-pasted fragments, but even paraphrased pieces of text. Unlike popular plagiarism-detection systems, which are used by most universities (e.g. Turnitin.com), we do not report to any public databases—therefore, such checking is safe.
We provide a plagiarism-free guarantee that ensures your paper is always checked for its uniqueness. Please note that it is possible for a writing company to guarantee an absence of plagiarism against open Internet sources and a number of certain databases, but there is no technology (except for turnitin.com itself) that could guarantee no plagiarism against all sources that are indexed by turnitin. If you want to be 100% sure of your paper’s originality, we suggest you check it using the WriteCheck service from turnitin.com and send us the report.
Yes. You can have a free revision during 7 days after you’ve approved the paper. To apply for a free revision, please press the revision request button on your personal order page. You can also apply for another writer to make a revision of your paper, but in such a case, we can ask you for an additional 12 hours, as we might need some time to find another writer to work on your order.
After the 7-day period, free revisions become unavailable, and we will be able to propose only the paid option of a minor or major revision of your paper. These options are mentioned on your personal order page.
