About This Video

In this video, I walk you through a quick, teacher-friendly intro to Google Docs and show you how I’d build a simple online assignment from scratch. I start by navigating to Google Docs and giving you a tour of the Google Docs homepage so you know exactly where to click to create a new document (and where to find your recent files). Then I break down the interface so the toolbar and menus feel a lot less overwhelming—especially if you’re newer to Google Workspace. From there, I get practical. I show you how to format text so directions and headings are easy for students to follow, then how to insert an image to make an assignment more engaging. Next, I demonstrate adding a hyperlink so students can jump to resources without hunting for them, and I build a simple table to organize information in a clean, classroom-ready way. Finally, I wrap up with sharing settings—because the assignment only works if students can actually access it. By the end, you’ll be able to create a sample Google Doc assignment and feel more confident using Docs in your everyday teaching.
