This assumes you've already created a Google document to share with a class. Note that when uploading files from Word, Google docs will not always save all your formatting. It's worth double-checking the formatting after you've uploaded the file.
Handing out the File
- Create a Collection that you will share with all the members of the class. Give each member Can Viewaccess.
- When you get to class, move the file into the folder shared with the members of the class. Then use theShare -> Email Collaborators feature to notify the students that the file is there.
- Instruct the students to login to their Burke google accounts and check their email. They can then click on the link in the email to access the file.
- Once they've opened the file, they should go to File -> Make a Copy and then rename the document with their name and the name of the test.
Collecting the File
- When the student finishes working on the document, instruct them to click on Share in the upper right corner.
- Under Add People, they should add the teacher.
- Leave the box for Notify people via email. That way you'll get an email link to the document.
- Click Share and Save.
- Then they should change your access from Can Edit to Is Owner.
- Then they change their access from Is Owner to Can View, or alternatively, they can click the x to the right of their name and remove their access altogether.
- Then they click on Save Changes and it's handed in!
