Google Apps: Docs Essential Training
A lot of computing applications are becoming a part and parcel of personal and professional computer use.
In Google Apps: Docs Essential Training, Susan Cline shows how this web-based application allows users to create documents, spreadsheets, presentations and forms that are stored online and accessible from any computer. She demonstrates how Google Docs makes managing multiple copies of a document with no reason to worry because every version is stored securely online in the Doc List. She also describes how to grant viewing and editing rights and then easily publish and share documents with anyone.
Topics include:
* Organizing and managing files in the Doc List;
* Performing basic and advanced formatting functions;
* Creating and applying formulas in spreadsheets;
* Adding media like images, charts, and videos;
* Moving docs from a desktop-based to a web-based application Creating dynamic slideshows and presentations;
* Sharing and simultaneously editing documents with collaborators;
* Publishing documents to the web or an organization's domain.
