Dear educators and students,
I'm launching Studifi, it's a collaboration platform that allows you to manage multiple projects. It even allows students to find teammates within their classes in order to work on any team-based work.
Professors and educators can track those teams and assign work, post grades etc.
We are providing Studifi free of charge, and free of advertisement!
If you want us to setup your university, please send me a message.

Hi Thomas,
Please can you move this message out of the Collaborations category and into the Resources category? This discussion category is for educators to connect with one another about global collaborative projects with students.
The resources category is here: http://www.globaleducationconference.com/forum/categories/global-ed...
Thank you
Adrienne
Hi Thomas,
Thanks for the advice.My project work is on this platform..www.windows2dpast.webs.com...Can I use studifi for such projects???Is it student friendly??
If you create accounts for my students,will they be able to use it on iEARN platform???
I have just registered on Sudifi but it seems it is meant for schools in America....
Thanks once again,Thomas..

Studifi is very student friendly! but not just students, we really want the user experience to be the best possible for everyone.
Studifi doesn't currently link to iEARN or any other external platform or site, however that will change in the future.
It is true that we are focusing our efforts on North America, however you can trust that we are aiming to reach everyone. We do have discussions going on with a few institutions in Asia and Europe.
What you might find interesting in Studifi is the team/project search engine. That will allow you to find projects and teams across the globe.
Also, if you wish to tell me more about your institution, I would be more than happy to add it into our system and move your account to it.

Hello Thomas,
This sounds interesting....I use webs.com for my project work.....earlier I used Ning..but then it has become very,very expensive.....I wanted to ask you if we could create email ids for students on your platform...I have been finding it difficult to create ids for students who are below 13 years of age.
Even the younger ones are doing some projects....could you please guide me on this???
Thanks,
Geeta
Hi Geeta,
Firstly, Studifi is completely free and free of ads. The reason why it's hard for students under the age of 13 to get email addresses is that the law protecting children on the web makes things slightly delicate.
Studifi cannot issue email addresses, and I see your problem as students cannot register without one. We are interested in catering the needs of elementary schools, so we would love to hear more about your troubles and help you out. If you would like, we could create accounts for all your students, so that they need not register themselves or need email addresses.
