    Your right to the point. Easy to follow and your speed is refreshing. So many people talk to slow and have too much side talk. I appreciate the in and out

    I use Google Docs totally online, I ever print anything, so in Page Setup I change the colour of the page. As a Masters student, I have different colours for uni work (pale yellow), my daily personal journal (pink) and for documents that my husband needs to see (blue) and quite a few others. And I know instantly by looking at the page what kind of document I'm looking at. This is also really useful if you use Google Docs on your phone, because the colours stand out when scrolling! Thank you for your video, I struggled for ages to work out how to put a video in, and now I know! :)

    Super video! Users often overlook the ability to add more fonts. Great tip!

      I agree. I often get asked about fonts. Hopefully we'll get the option to upload our own in the future.

    The features that I found most useful were the ability to cite sources, sharing the document with others that don't have google suites, and the adding of the video into a google doc. Thank you so much for sharing.

    • @FlippedClassroomTutorials
      @FlippedClassroomTutorials  5 років тому

      Thank you for that! I hope we will soon see full embedded video, but in the meantime the workaround definitely does the trick! Hopefully we'll get some more citation formats in the future but for now, it's a great start.

    Nice video, so crisp and clear. No long and cringe intro video, short to the point and no jargon. It also covers many interesting features that I completely missed even after I already using google docs for years!
    Even if this a 3 years old video, things barely changed and I found it still relevant today, albeit I can't find some cover up feature that google docs implemented recently.

    Thank you so much. I have a question : Can I use Google sheets to create an automated Report, where the Report draws information from a database and inserts it into the Report in a specific order ?
    I want to create a Report for my clients, but there are variables with different data sets that need to be displayed in the Report.
    Custom information that I normally manually have to cut and paste from different word documents into the Report, depending on what their unique profile is.

    • @FlippedClassroomTutorials
      @FlippedClassroomTutorials  5 місяців тому

      Are you trying to create reports (ie. individual files for each user profile say for example in the case of reports or invoices) or do you want the report to be live and change the data displayed as you select different people. I live dashboard sort of say.
      The first will be doable through Autocrat and merging Sheets and Docs. The second scenario can be done using data studio and data connections to Sheets. If I find time in the next few weeks I am happy to make an in depth video on both of these but hopefully this points you in the right direction.

      @@FlippedClassroomTutorials Hi, I'm setting up a Knowledge Base for Australian Schools. I have a Google Site that I want to share and can password protect it using Google Forms. But .... once someone has access to the Google Site itself (having entered the correct password) what's stopping them from going directly into the Google Site directly later ... and sharing it with other schools if they want to? Any ideas? :|

    That was a super presentation.
    Your videos are so helpful to me in getting real value from Google's amazing free tools.
    Over the last year i have introduced Chromeboxes, ChromeOS and Google cloud computing to my everyday life almost completely abandoning Microsoft Windows. I find more potential there every day.
    I realise that you aim your videos at the education fraternity but they are equally helpful to the oldies fraternity too, I left education 52 years ago, long before personal computers were even dreamed of and have always enjoyed new knowledge, new skills, and finding better ways to do things in everyday life. Your videos are really stimulating.

    Another tip I find useful is" If there is something I can't do in my doc. I will got to word or pages for example, create what I need to and then save as a jpg and then insert that into the doc. Will work even if you are using and image and wording but then would have crop the whole area or screen shoot to be able to create the jpg

    I need to make a writing portfolio on Google Docs to show that to clients but I am confused about how to share my content with my clients in a professional way?
    Secondly, to do that which one should come first, Google Docs or Google drive?
    Please help.

    Thank you. I think it would be good to preface these by pointing out some of these tips - like no.1* - are only available through Chrome. I couldn’t understand why I didn’t have the mic and voice type in my Docs and I had to search on the internet for a clue. It’s worth pointing out because others, such as the adding fonts, are not dependent on using Chrome, so a bit confusing at first. *Actually, it may be the only one!
