Why Use UVLe Instead of Yahoo or Google Groups
From Iskomunidad
- UVLe has a wide range of features and activities focused on helping teachers manage their courses efficiently.
- With a simple set-up on UVLe, a teacher can run activities (like Quiz, Survey, Wiki) that encourage student-teacher and student-student interactions.
- UVLe has a bigger file upload limit than Yahoo or Google Group.
- As teacher, you can collect assignments online by asking your students to upload their files instead of emailing those files to you, thus avoid clogging your mail box. Better still, with Uvle, you can set a deadline of submission. This time-sensitive feature is not even in Yahoo or Google Group.
- Yahoo Group no longer keeps attachments to emails. Uvle archives everything in your message (including attachments) for later retrieval.
- Uvle logs all activities of students on Uvle so the teacher can choose to monitor, among others, who is lagging behind with the readings and assignments.
