More responses

Is this a reason for its projected failure or bankruptcy in 2009?

General Motors increased their outsourcing of U.S. jobs during their bankruptcy in 2009.
“The idea is not that anyone’s opinion is as good as anybody else’s but rather that anyone’s opinion may stand until it is overwritten by someone who believes they have a better line” –Brian Street
Good or bad?
Outside the class
Google Drive promotes interactivity outside of the class because teachers are able view and comment on students’ works in progress.
Before class, teachers can view what students were able to complete and tailor class accordingly.
Inside the Class
Google Drive allows the instructor to view small group works in progress.
The Pedagogical Limitations
The audience is small.
Their work becomes public, raising privacy issues.
The limitations: design issues
Plain interface
Google Drive does not retain copies of comments after they’ve been “resolved” or “deleted”.
You cannot copy and paste text without retaining the old comment bubbles that are attached to the text.
Physiological limitations
Carpel Tunnel
Vision issues
