Literature Circles with Google Drive

We are using Google Docs to collaborate with Literature Circles. I created a document in Google Drive for each novel and shared it with students that are reading that novel. The students still have the traditional Lit Circle jobs each week, but instead of filling out a paper (that often gets lost) they add their information to the Google Doc. This allows students to easily collaborate outside of class. As a teacher it helps me ensure that all students are doing their part along the way and not waiting until the last minute. I have noticed increased student excitement and participation about reading and sharing.
