Teams LX™ uses wiki technology to provide users with tools for collaboratively creating rich media websites. Sharing a common online workspace, community members author content, assemble research, and present their work product in a format that enhances participation and encourages organization.
Collaborate on online projects
Teams LX is a great way for instructors to create group assignments. Students work cooperatively to formulate, write, and publish their solutions in the form of websites. This task encourages them to think critically and analytically as they evaluate and organize relevant content. Teams LX is also an easy way for staff and administrators to manage committee and project work by establishing an online “home” for pertinent documents, meeting minutes, schedules, and more.
Create shared resources
Teams LX allows instructors and students to collaboratively build shared knowledge bases within courses. Users can maintain an up-to-date, online course resource by authoring content, linking to external resources, contributing opinions and analyses, and reframing existing content. Organizations can use Teams LX in a similar way. The typical distribution and revision of information via countless group emails is virtually eliminated when community members access and update information from one simple, online location.
Assess group participation
Teams LX provides a tool that identifies contributions at the individual level and tracks the evolution of a group’s response. This helps instructors assess each student’s input to the group project work they have assigned. This easy tracking of versions by contributor makes project management simple and efficient for any group using Teams LX.
