There is software to correct your spelling and grammar; take your research and convert it into visuals; create and edit videos; collect information and multimedia from around the web and compile it in one digital space; map non-linear ideas; gather comments from people in multiple locations and compile them in real-time; and teach with interactive games, scenarios, quizzes, and multiple other options.
