I need to hear from you!
In your comments to this post, you will be "a critic." I'd like to hear your opinion about Google Docs and the project. What were some of the things that you liked (about both)? What were things that you didn't like (about both)? Do you have any suggestions on how this project might be improved?

ReplyDeleteI liked how it was easy to share with other people and you. I didn't like how it didn't have as many tools, or easily to use tools, as Microsoft programs do. We are all used to the Microsoft programs, and it was hard to adjust to the different formatting. I liked that we got to work with a partner on this project. I also liked doing a presentation(even though i would rather make it on Microsoft Powerpoint), because they are a lot of fun for me. I have no way to suggust improvements since my only critic is that it would be easier to do on Microsoft, and this is a google docs project.
ReplyDeleteTo every computer program there is something that people like and dislike. For me I liked being able to access my project at home and being able to converse with my partner without distracting or interuptting another person. The project I thought was a good idea because it taught us about things we didn't know.I did not like that somehow the program seemed to add things or disrupt/change what we wrote on our projects. All in all I think it was a good project, but I wasn't too happy with the program we used.
ReplyDeleteThe Google Docs Project has shown me the value of online word usage and how accessing such information from any computer with internet access has extreme benefits. It was insightful and well taught. It showed various usage of all of the google docs, and we got to use partners which is always great.
ReplyDelete2 200 word newsletters were hard to find adequate information reguarding the same topic but it did teach me information about distracted driving.
Thank you,
Scott

ReplyDeleteWhile using Google Docs, I thought the program was unreliable and slow. The tools you had to use were complicated and had a lot of glitches. The project turned out well but it took a lot longer than it should have. I feel it would have looked better and been done faster if we could've used Microsoft. Some things that I liked about Google Docs was the ability to share with a friend or teacher. Some things I did not like about it was that it didn't have spell check. I don't think the project could be improved because it was relatively simple to do and we had a lot of time to complete it.
ReplyDeleteI liked how easily you could share the documents with other people and how you could access it from any computer. It was really easy to use and I liked how you could work on it at home if you needed to. I prefer Microsoft Word because there are more tools to use. The project really helped a lot of us learn how to use different things on the internet. Also, it educated on everyone on the dangers of driving distracted and drugs.
ReplyDeleteOne thing that I liked about Google Docs and the project was that I could share it. Although this awesome ability is related only to Google Docs, it helped and my partner to finish our project VERY easily with feedback, help, and critique from eachother.
ReplyDeleteWhile working on the project, my partner and I commented on eachothers ariticles for the newslettert to make them much better. Also when working on the Powerpoint, we could work at home, which I had to do. This was so much easier than emailing our seperate powerpoints and combining them!
One suggestion that I have on how to improve the Google Docs project is that I found it hard to write two different articles without repeating some information. Other than that, I liked the project.
I really liked the way you could share the document or whatever you would be doing. I didnt like how u gave us so much work in a little bit of time, but thats what you coukld do at home. I like also that we had partners to wokr on it with, so then we could cover more in a less amount of time. I liked the presentation and the survey. Not so much the document because we had to right 2 200 word essays. Maybe just one 200 word essay would be good for the futre but thats my opinion.
ReplyDeleteGoogle docs is a very useful resource. I like it very much, its a big help on group projects. It helps to share documents and let people edit them. The project wasnt really as fun as i thought it would be, i didnt really like doing it. The project wasnt hard, i just would not like to do it again. If we did a project like this agian alow us to do more then one supject.
ReplyDeleteI think google docs was okay and i liked using it because it was easy to use and i liked the project because i learned alot of new facts. Some things that i didn't like was that i had to type alot for the two paragraphs and what i didn't like about google docs was that everytime that i went to open a new document for google, it opened a new internet explorer page at the bottom, by the start button.
ReplyDeleteWhile using google doc, I thought it was good project. With the topics we used I thinked we learned more exp. about this project. Google doc has a lot of new tools that I got to use and many other people got to use them too. With the topics we had to use I learned things that I didn't even know. I thought google docs was a great exp. for me and other people to use too.
ReplyDeleteI enjoy the variety of different features that Google Docs offers. Every Microsoft program is right there, and easy to use. The ability to share is also convenient. The only thing I would suggest about the project is attempting to do more with the forms.
ReplyDeleteGoogle docs had good intentions with allowing you to share and edit documents and presentation but it was unreliable. It was much harder to do simple things such as just uploading a picture or adding a text box. The tools on google were difficult and did'nt work half the time. The project on the other hand was very useful. I learned alot of stuff about both drug use and distracted driving and convinced me never to do either of them.
ReplyDeleteI love using Google Docs. I love how you can share documents with the person you're working with, and you can watch someone edit live. I didn't really like doing the whole project, but it wasn't hard. The information was easy to find, and it wasn't hard to put together.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite thing about Google Docs would probably be doing the forms. I think that we should only have to write one newsletter each. It'skind of hard to write 2 newsletters on the same topic without repeating things.
I thought some of things things we were taught about Google docs were a bit obvious, but i did see how cool it can be. I mean if i were writing a paper for a project with a friend we could still work on it together over the internet. There is no need to have them over if you don't want (In case you got paired with someone you don't like :P). Now seriously, its a really cool way to access documents over the web and i think it is a useful tool i will use in the future.
ReplyDeleteI dont really like google docs because it is very confusing and it can run slow at tiems, but it is good for that you can use it at anytime all yo uneed is a computer and the internet, but i did not like the project at all, and i mean at ALL it was kinda not cool, like i think we all should of done at least one article but thats it, i think we did to mucb that all it said was the same thing.
ReplyDeleteI really liked Google Docs. All of the programs were very useful and they were new to me because in Online A all we used was the document. I really liked how organized everything was and I liked how you could share things so more than one person could work on one thing at a time. One thing I didn't like was that all of the programs ran very slow. Sometimes the document program would auto save right in the middle of typing and if you were really into a thought and weren't really lloking at the screen and it did that, nothing you typed would be there. There should be a way to turn the auto save but other than that I loved Google Docs
ReplyDeleteI think google docs was a good experience. I really learned how to use this in many different ways. 2 things i liked about the project was doing the presentation. one thing i didnt like was doing the articles because anthony sailer made me do most of the work........! This project could be improved by having better partners....!!!!
ReplyDeleteI like Google Docs because it is very easy to use like how you can just send the file and have your partner work with you on the same project. What I didnt like about this project for the article i think 200 words for all of them was a little much maybe 125 to 150 would have been a litle better.
ReplyDeleteI liked doing this google docs project. It helped me learn new information that was useful. That information was also easy to transfer and it was cool that we could edit our partner's work if needed. The only thing that wasn't very good about the project was that the information was maybe said more then once in the four documents.
ReplyDeleteSome of the things that i liked about Google Docs was that it was almost like microsoft word, powerpoint and the other microsoft things. I really liked everything, there wasn't a part that i didn't like. I don't think that i would want to fix anything.
ReplyDeleteI liked both, Google docs, and the project. The sharing ability in Google docs was very useful to do the project, and could help to do many other projects. There was nothing that I disliked about the project and Google Docs. The project was easy to do and made us get used to use Google docs, I don't think it need to be improved.
ReplyDeleteI thought overall the project was good. I thought Google docs were very easy to use, but sometimes it has glitches and wouldn’t do what you wanted it to do it was also really slow. I also wish we had a little bit more time to do the project and put finishing touches on our things. I also really liked how you could share our projects with other people; it’s a lot easier then e-mailing.
ReplyDeleteUsing Google Docs has opened a whole new way to create and use documents. I liked using Google Docs because it was convenient to be able to open the documents on any computer at any time, share it with anyone, and edit it at any time. Also being able to communicate with your partner and edit their additions to the project. Using Google Docs has fixed all of the previous problems that I used to have when I used other things like E-mail or flash drives.
ReplyDeleteGoogle Docs seemed to be very slow for me. I couldn't type my newsletter because it took way to long just to type one word. But overall I think it's a great idea so I can access my files at home. I also really liked the project. It was very informative to the younger students who maybe haven't heard these things yet.
