Communication+&+Collaboration

Collaboration and Communication:
Communication and Collaboration have been halmarks of humanity since before the dawn of history. These skills have allowed societies to spring into existence, to grow, and to improve over time. In the 21st century, the only change is the ease of engaging in these skills without the constraints historically placed by proximity. We are living a global world where every person on the planet has the ability to contribute to the conversation. The only limitation now is access, but even that limitation is being steadily addressed. What are the tools that will allow our students to engage in the conversation?
