Collaborative digital tools are a great way for students to interact with their teachers, and for students to interact with students too as collaborative learning in itself is a great way for individuals to absorb information, and to learn from others.

If we think about real-life as oppose to digital learning, debates and discussions fuel the mind to think deeply about any given topic. It allows people to argue strongly for what they believe in which really helps every person present to understand both sides of a story, both sides of a topic say. Debating and discussions are key to learning in a lot of subjects whether at university level or school - for example politics, ethics or even English Literature.

Therefore in the digital age, where people are taking part in e-learning, be it a simple lesson or a whole course - surely it is important that multiple students, or students and a teacher can be connected and debate/discuss/learn at the same time.

Collaborative work is brilliant in any situation, such as a traditional classroom or office - Like when you’re told to split into groups to solve a task and present your findings to the whole class afterwards. Working with other people sparks ideas and makes you consider viewpoints you hadn’t originally. In addition, people have different personality types and ways to approach a problem, and the commingling of different skills can make the end result more effective. For example, one person could be very organised, and help to design a timescale to do the work in. Another may be a leader and good at delegating tasks to group members so that the work gets done efficiently. Another might be very creative and come up with lots of ideas, and one more could be practical and start thinking about how those ideas might be realised. if they were on their own, those people might not get the work done at all - the creative person might not know how to actually put those ideas into practice, and the organised person might not have many fresh new ideas, etc. All of that transfers into the digital world, because you don’t have to be in a room with someone to collaborate. Tools like messenger, Skype and shared worksheets make it easy.

As long as development of digital tools (generally in the global North) is not an excuse to claim credit for investing in development, when the poorest lacking education don't get to see any benefit ...
