Google Documents.
Google Docs is an online program where documents can be shared and saved. I was first introduced to this file sharing application by watching a short video on its functions and uses. I discovered that it allows users to share documents with as many or as little people as desired. It provides the ability for others to read filed documents and, if they wish, make a comment in response or even edit the work. Google Docs allows you to set the privacy settings to which you feel comfortable. Therefore this granted me the option to save some work to Google Docs for only me to see and other drafts for certain people to have editing ability.
This program was beneficial to my project due to the constructive criticism from my peers which I otherwise would not have received. It shares the opportunity to work as a collaborative team.
I collaborated on a document which a drama teacher sent entitled “Drama is not for everyone, or is it?” Whilst commenting it helped me to understand the reasons why I felt my research project was beneficial and emphasized my passion to enable society to share my thoughts. From other users comments I was able to examine the differences of opinion around this subject which made me view my work in an unbiased manner.
I am pleased I was made aware of this online application and have even shared this experience with others. Google Docs has supported my research immensely and I will continue to use it for future reference.
