    As always, I appreciate all your efforts. Thank you so much for all that you publish. I still go back to old videos of yours as reference. You did a video years ago on how to password protect any document on google drive. I can't tell you how much this has helped me with protecting videos on the internet for my students. Thank you gain.

      Correct. Its one of the reasons I've made that particular video unlisted as some people forgot to read the Description and thought it was more secure than it was. I used that technique a lot for digital breakout challenges and escape room like activities and in that case the password is not shared as the students love solving the challenges. Still the most secure way to share of protect files is by having them shared using the share settings which can be changed at any time. But as with everything. Nothing is 100% safe.

      @@FlippedClassroomTutorials I teach Severely Handicapped Special Education. I make videos of our events and publish them on my google drive. I needed something to keep them relatively safe with a password. It worked perfectly, and my parents feel safe. My students are from a low socioeconomic area, so this is really their yearbook [plus the school year book wouldn't really have much content with them in it]. So you have helped us a great deal. Thank you, I just wanted you to know.

    Always succinct, valuable information with beautiful production. Thanks so much!
    Word is finally catching up to what Google has been doing for years -- collaborative docs. It appears the collaboration is not synchronous as Google is, though, with real-time chat and labeled/color-specific cursors within the doc to differentiate each collaborator as they edit. Or is that possible as well?
    Smart Lookup is the equivalent of the Explore tool in Google with research & in-text citations/footnotes. Nice.
    But it seems Editor Score would be the game changer, especially for my EFL writers. It's like a built-in rubric. Wow! Perhaps I should make the switch next semester...🤔

      I agree with your summary. I am revisiting most Office applications in the coming weeks as I feel the online Free versions have certainly been improved a great deal. There is still work to be done on the collaboration side of things as you've mentioned but other additions such as the focus on EAL and SEN as well as the inclusion of many accessibility tools right out of the box are what makes Microsoft worth another look.

      Word for the web does not let you edit, delete, or add new borders to text. If you’ve added borders around text in a document you created with the Word desktop app, Word for the web will preserve them. A potential workaround you can try is to use a table that contains only one cell, then paste or type your text into that cell.
