Found a really cool tool Wiggio. I will definitely suggest this tool for my next team project. It seems like it has some really great features. Although google hangouts are great, Wiggio is dedicated to the sole function of collaboration. It also has mobile friendly features, which would have been really helpful in my last group project.
I was disappointed in what was available for gaming in education tools. I get that it is more commonly a pedagogy, but there has to be simulators out there that teachers or educators use to teach/train.
Lacey, I was at a conference this fall and @christopherlike presented his gamified staff PD - https://sites.google.com/a/bettendorf.k12.ia.us/bhs-tech-pd/ . You can't see some items for privacy reasons, but it's a great view into the world of gamification. Another tool is http://www.edmodo.com/. Badges built in and could be tweaked to have more of a game feel.
