Fundamentals of Google Docs - Increased Productivity

Google Docs is word processing software that is part of the G Suite group of apps. It provides users with a wide-ranging array of features. This course gives you detailed presentations on how to access and use these features. You will learn the best practices to make the most out of your time using Google Docs. The app includes all the standard features you would expect to find in word processing software, such as text indentation and line spacing. And these are previewed in the course, too. However, Google Docs provides other features that, once learned, enable you to increase your productivity and get more out of the app. These include helpful tools like voice typing, personal dictionaries, document translation, and grammar checks. Other interesting Google Docs options in this course include the drawings function and how it allows users to insert textboxes or signatures into documents and treat them as editable images that retain their editing functionalities even after they have been copied and copied pasted. Another exciting feature also covered in the course videos is the Docs option to find and insert special characters by drawing them by hand. This feature is helpful in that it saves users the time to look through endless special characters lists to find what they are looking for.

Google Docs is also optimized for collaboration and sharing. This course details the related features that the app provides. And the course videos also show you how to apply these features with clear step-by-step guides. You learn about Viewing, Suggesting, and Editing Modes. You will also learn how to share your Docs in either Restricted or Sharing Mode and add Sharing Permissions to allow specific people to either View, Suggest or Edit the shared documents. Docs users also benefit from extra functionality that would otherwise be unavailable in traditional word processing programs. This is because Docs is part of the Google group of apps.
