A teacher can neatly upgrade a trend of collaborative learning that encourages development of social skills and active learning with integration of the cloud computing. Microsoft Office 365 offers a specter of different tools and services a teacher can include in a learning process. Thus the role of a teacher and a learner can intertwine and also swap. The method expands learners’ productivity and responsibility for their own knowledge. The workshop presents an example of the collaborative learning in the Cloud. Participants of the workshop will be able to use different Office Online tools (Word, PowerPoint, OneNote) while discussing some teaching contents. Collaboration work will enable more people to work simultaneously and increase the amount of new data. A teacher can constantly check and comment on the notes that learners make. The materials are automatically stored in the Cloud and can be easily upgraded. Furthermore, learners present the materials which are also available to every collaborator.
