Google Doc Drawing Feature
You may or may not know of a really great feature within Google Apps that you are able to access with your UDel email. It is the Google Doc Drawing creator. If you go into Google Documents on the top of your email screen you will see a tab that says "Create." After you click create there is a drop down menu that has a couple options. One of the options on the drop down menu is "Drawing." You can open the drawing feature and then go at it. There are options to insert pictures, shapes, text, word art, lines, and arrows. This is a great tool to use if you want to make a flow charts or concept charts. You also get all the great perks to working within Google Docs as well. No need to worry about the computer crashing and losing all your work because it saves automatically to Docs every few seconds while working on it. You can also utilize the collaborating feature which allows for whoever you want to work on the same drawing at the same time without having to email things back and forth. A great tool that I would definitely recommend!
