2. Saves automatically (no more complaints about I lost my work)
3. Easy access from any Internet computer (eliminates “my computer crashed” because it is always online
4. Teacher can monitor student work easily & offer comments & suggestions at any point in the assignment. Hard for students to tell those big fibs when you can see their revision history online.
