B. Email Platform

Even though there are various social network for students, sometimes we need to send email because of the attachments. Even though mail exchange have been thin in the air but they are still in relevant. Use one of email Provider such as Google, Outlook, hotmail, yahoo mail etc. Recommendation: Gmail because it can be integrated with other Google Services.

C. Cloud Storage for File Collaboration:

File Collaboration is the major platform because sometimes discussion, email may not be enough. Hence file collaboration is much needed part for the student. It means interacting with the file kept in cloud location. We can use services such as Google drive, One drive, Dropbox, Box etc. Recently this happened to be much beneficial as i was able to share some of the files through Google Drive to my colleagues preparing for the exam.

Google Drive: 15 GB One drive: 5GB Box: 10GB Dropbox: 3GB Recommendation: Google drive Once you have a Google account, you can automatically login and use 15 GB. You can use it store files, photos. You can store files and make it shareable so that your friends can access and download it.

D. QnA forum

QnA forum means asking question and answering by experts or other user. Asking questions on the other hand may be related to all field either mathematics or programming. Their may be many sites but my best recommendation is Stack Exchange Network. You can enter into various sub networks and solve your question and ask if you have anything new. Other: Quora and Reddit recommended.

E. Chat and Discussion

Although social media provide this feature not every people you can get into touch with them because of privacy and other issue. Hence you can get in touch with other experts and seniors in chat and discussion site or app who don’t want to disclose on such social network for personal cause. Recommended: Slack, Discord, Gitter [ According to need]

F. Code sharing and Collaboration

What is the most way if you want to involve with your group member for project but cant be in one place for stuff like project? Of course social media but not for such issue. Well there are platform that can unite team members to collaborate and work on group. Possible: Github, Butbucket, Gitlab Recommended: Github and Bitbucket. You can also have private space in Bitbucket. Github on the other hand provides student pack so that we can get premium services for free on platform such as Digital Ocean.
