  1. 1. yes I find it very easy to use
    2. an advantage is that you can share your documents and projects with other people and you can get to them from any computer.
    3. Although it is an easy program to use, sometimes it doesn't cooperate with what you want, and I still find Word an easier software. 4. I cant always get the sentances wear I want them.
    5. It would be great in core classes because instead of printing papers out and turning them in...you could just send them strait to your teacher.
    6. I will probally never use Google Docs with my friends...I dont really have a need to.
    7. no more comments
    (I wrote this out now instead of Friday, because I will not be here Thursday or Friday. The choirs are leaving tonight for our New York trip, and I was going to tell you in class but your not here today...sorry)

  2. 1. Google Docs is very easy to use.
    2. Some advantages of Google Docs would be sharing with friends or Co Workers without printing off many copies.
    3. Some disadvantages are that the emails can get quite confusing, and for the lazy type it's to complex.
    4. Yes, I got confused on the documents that were being shared, but I'm sure that's a common error while using it.
    5. Google Docs could be used to share many projects and writing papers in English, or worksheets in math.
    6. I would probably never use Google Docs to share things with friends, but I could if I needed.
    7. No further comments.

  13. 1. Yes, I found Google Docs very easy to use.
    2. An advantage of using Google Docs is that you can share your documents with other people and they can edit them also.
    3. Some disadvantages are that it can get confusing if you dont know how to use it, and you have to know the persons email in order to share with them.
    4. In the begining it was kind of confusing for me to get the exact email of the person coppied and pasted so that i could share them.
    5. You could use this in an english class if you are doing a group report. You could do your part of the report and then share it with your friends so that they could work on their part of the report.
    6. I probably would not use Google Docs to share things with my friends but I know it is there if I ever needed it.

  23. 1.) Yes, I find Google Docs easy to use.
    2.)Advantages of using Google Docs is that you can share your work with other and they can work on it too. Also if it for a project it is easy for a group to collaborate.
    3.)A disadvantage of using Google docs is that if google or the Internet id down you cant access your files.
    4.) I don't really have an problems with Google docs but it sometimes bothers me when it doesn't do what i want. I find using Microsoft word way easier!
    5.) In other classes you could use it to share homework, or to collaborate on a project without having to meet with the person.
    6.)I Probably wont use google docs to share with my friends unless they use it too or if its the best way to send something.
    7.)I have no further comments.
