There are two ways to go about accomplishing this task: (1) your group sends 173 emails trying to coordinate a time at which everyone is available to meet or (2) each person writes a portion of the paper and the group tries to synthesize uncoordinated chunks of different writing styles into one cohesive paper, which always ends with one Type A student editing the entire thing.

It’s that simple. Having the ability to work together in the cloud means no coordinating schedules, no wasting time on multiple revisions, and no unequal division of group member contributions. <br /> <br /> For example, when I had to complete a group paper for an Economics class, my two groupmates and I decided we would each write one-third of the paper.

While we understood each other in the lab by scribbling Greek letters and numbers to solve problems, at times it was difficult to communicate since English wasn’t her first language. So when we had to create our presentation, it sounded like a grueling task for both of us. <br /> <br /> We decided to use <a href="//www.google.com/drive/apps.html" target="_blank">Slides</a>, divide the work, add notes, and edit together from within the presentation. Our communication was clear and efficient when we typed comments to each other since we could take our time to be articulate, which virtually dissolved our language barrier. In the end, creating the presentation was quite enjoyable; we were proud of the final product and our professors were impressed by how well we worked together. <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="//4.bp.blogspot.com/-_4LUJ8Wh0Tw/Uh9e02f8KeI/AAAAAAAASXU/LDKAlAPcUHY/s1600/slidesupdate.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="440" src="//4.bp.blogspot.com/-_4LUJ8Wh0Tw/Uh9e02f8KeI/AAAAAAAASXU/LDKAlAPcUHY/s640/slidesupdate.jpg" width="640"></a></div> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div> <b>Example 3: Using Forms to organize information and make it universally accessible and useful...sound familiar?</b><br /> <br /> Being a full-time student and an active member of an extracurricular activity (sport, club, fraternity/sorority, etc.) can sometimes feel like a full-time job. It requires teamwork, organization, time-management, and dedication. <br /> <br /> Being the leader of a group demands more: writing agendas, scheduling meetings, organizing fundraisers, and sticking to a budget.

Google Keep can remind you of important tasks and errands at just the right time and place. For example, Keep works with Google Now to remind you of your grocery list when you walk into your favorite grocery store, and nudges you on Thursday night to take out the trash.<br /> <br /> <span id="docs-internal-guid-6f94116e-a161-4fcf-5842-4cc4ee1557c8">      <img height="480px;" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/DwJ08zWN-oXrSJ_w1wuF4Y8p5wuzj1FmiREZonyTj9nJLaSCSyDCMoEBKy4Lm_bNi18jKk0ZzR465x8WK6-AndpIycSRCp0WyPuVxZPFhzDKOkmILGU7dNpXog" width="300px;" /><img height="480px;" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/QXr2IomROw5qrmWOdRudNOvsNTHvKCFFMg61GFrUJJbDFTGzbFHza2DpndMGstCwQCnwdOeZKE6Do6UMoEdqxlqReik_aujMjWHXohsDQUaIaa1NFu3uPZGDtQ" width="300px;" /></span><br /> To get started, select the “Remind me” button from the bottom of any note and choose the type of reminder you want to add. You can add time-based reminders for a specific date and time, or a more general time of day, like tomorrow morning. Adding a location reminder is incredibly easy too – as soon as you start typing Google Keep suggests places nearby.<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <span id="docs-internal-guid-6f94116e-a162-66e8-8f7d-a0eb2fc26462" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img height="250px;" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-1Vkzsy5fYfcpJeMjLJlJ5i8DRJBLPibyhPh9lggA8Gdp4jqGeNMofnqJN71udNLj_lN9XjKEmfb4kGlt_CHXsEUH2jejb79dvzLuX4itZA9k5W1SoVGBzrs_g" width="226px;" /></span></div> <br /> Of course, sometimes plans change. If you get a reminder you’re not ready to deal with, simply snooze it to a time or place that’s better for you. It’s now even easier to get to all of your notes using the new navigation drawer, which includes a way to view all of your upcoming reminders in one place. And for people who want more separation between their home and work lives, the drawer also lets you easily switch between your accounts.<br /> <br /> <span id="docs-internal-guid-6f94116e-a163-731c-e8c9-5db06e09371b">      <img height="480px;" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/0_2PPnI-yp1xMbQFddXRvPHGem2JWxXQtOR9AHb9zMgLAE-eH5v0P-_w0iX1nya2IrGuFRu5GDmkmEmgu21ek2hjYwtB5jBIWlz_7gavLh05xhcS19f3Fioc" width="300px;" /><img height="480px;" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/B3ckRYCAEoaNE-1O-Z6pq_haD6GKHzWYxJiThA4K4_dZusuKafe0m4FtHcHKTQUEHEQlmSy6e8foApCnFYjBAE02Q_EMuiPFd76LmY5Ghp8W3GIkJoWdtOsP" width="300px;" /></span><br /> And finally, we’ve made it easier to add your existing photos to a Google Keep note on Android.

For example, Keep works with Google Now to remind you of your grocery list when you walk into your favorite grocery store, and nudges you on Thursday night to take out the trash.<br /> <br /> <span id="docs-internal-guid-6f94116e-a161-4fcf-5842-4cc4ee1557c8">      <img height="480px;" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/DwJ08zWN-oXrSJ_w1wuF4Y8p5wuzj1FmiREZonyTj9nJLaSCSyDCMoEBKy4Lm_bNi18jKk0ZzR465x8WK6-AndpIycSRCp0WyPuVxZPFhzDKOkmILGU7dNpXog" width="300px;" /><img height="480px;" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/QXr2IomROw5qrmWOdRudNOvsNTHvKCFFMg61GFrUJJbDFTGzbFHza2DpndMGstCwQCnwdOeZKE6Do6UMoEdqxlqReik_aujMjWHXohsDQUaIaa1NFu3uPZGDtQ" width="300px;" /></span><br /> To get started, select the “Remind me” button from the bottom of any note and choose the type of reminder you want to add. You can add time-based reminders for a specific date and time, or a more general time of day, like tomorrow morning. Adding a location reminder is incredibly easy too – as soon as you start typing Google Keep suggests places nearby.<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <span id="docs-internal-guid-6f94116e-a162-66e8-8f7d-a0eb2fc26462" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img height="250px;" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-1Vkzsy5fYfcpJeMjLJlJ5i8DRJBLPibyhPh9lggA8Gdp4jqGeNMofnqJN71udNLj_lN9XjKEmfb4kGlt_CHXsEUH2jejb79dvzLuX4itZA9k5W1SoVGBzrs_g" width="226px;" /></span></div> <br /> Of course, sometimes plans change. If you get a reminder you’re not ready to deal with, simply snooze it to a time or place that’s better for you. It’s now even easier to get to all of your notes using the new navigation drawer, which includes a way to view all of your upcoming reminders in one place. And for people who want more separation between their home and work lives, the drawer also lets you easily switch between your accounts.<br /> <br /> <span id="docs-internal-guid-6f94116e-a163-731c-e8c9-5db06e09371b">      <img height="480px;" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/0_2PPnI-yp1xMbQFddXRvPHGem2JWxXQtOR9AHb9zMgLAE-eH5v0P-_w0iX1nya2IrGuFRu5GDmkmEmgu21ek2hjYwtB5jBIWlz_7gavLh05xhcS19f3Fioc" width="300px;" /><img height="480px;" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/B3ckRYCAEoaNE-1O-Z6pq_haD6GKHzWYxJiThA4K4_dZusuKafe0m4FtHcHKTQUEHEQlmSy6e8foApCnFYjBAE02Q_EMuiPFd76LmY5Ghp8W3GIkJoWdtOsP" width="300px;" /></span><br /> And finally, we’ve made it easier to add your existing photos to a Google Keep note on Android.
