Basecamp is primarily used for project management and team collaboration. It helps you organize and track the status of your work, assign tasks, set deadlines, and share all project data—like files, messages, and updates—with your team members. This makes it easy for everyone to stay on the same page and manage projects efficiently together.

I use Basecamp for inter team collaboration, but when you look up the web, you find it does a lot more.
Can be used to share files, provide feedback, send messages, and share to-do lists for projects among group members both when working in the same classroom and working remotely together
