Working Together: Log In & Collaborate

Don’t send another email with an attachment!

Instead, log in, create a document, spreadsheet, or presentation and then share the document to collaborate. It sounds simple, but document collaboration works best if you learn a few techniques first. Join Andy Wolber (@awolber) to learn how to give people space to create, why you should take turns, and when to stay positive with your comments. You’ll learn how to create a grant proposal, prepare a presentation, or draft a budget together with your team. (The session will cover collaboration practices for both Office 365 and Google Apps).

At the end of this webinar, participants will be able to:

• Describe how to customize shared document settings; 

• Discuss effective editing practices to avoid common collaborative document pitfalls (e.g., no one edits, or the opposite -- everyone edits!); and

• Identify different editing modes (e.g., revise, comment, suggested edits, and accept/reject edits) or recover from undesirable edits.

Educational level: Introductory

Instructional Method: Lecture with question and answer period
