Top online tools to connect and collaborate
By MAS Team
We're all guilty of spending heaps of time online. But now with lectures and group projects online too, it's easy to miss connecting with our Profs and uni mates IRL.
Luckily, being an online student in 2020 has perks. Like tonnes of apps and online tools to help you connect and collaborate. Skype and Zoom? So March 2020. Here's what you need.
Sometimes you just need a space to bounce around all the questions in your head. And the more help – the better. That's where these easy-to-use group chats do the trick.
Group chats are great, but face time is better. Plus, if you're a visual learner these new video chat apps are a must. Best part? Unlike real life, you can mute anyone, anytime.
Okay, so you may have heard of these. But they're classics for a reason. Use the various Google apps for collaborating on essays, reports, presentations, spreadsheets and more.
You might work better when you can scribble down your thoughts. And it it's a visual project with others, you'll want an interactive space to share your creative ideas. Enter: Miro, Stormboard and Twiddla.
Probably the hardest part of jumping into online learning is not seeing familiar faces every day. But there's still plenty of ways to chill together and have a laugh 'after school'.
While it’s good to have a positive outlook – student life’s not all sunshine and rainbows. So how do we build the resilience to bounce back? It’s all about taking care of yourself so you’re prepared for the worst.
Whether you want to go on your OE, start building your wealth through investing, save to buy your first home, or just make the most of that new salary, graduation is a great time to set financial goals and make a plan to achieve them.
It’s crunch time. You know what that means? The finish line is in sight and a well-deserved break is coming. But exam season can send even the most well-prepped student into a frenzy. So if you’re feeling frantic – breathe. We’ve got your back.
