Workshop covers Google tools for productive collaboration

BRATTLEBORO — Jil “JilMac” MacMenamin, a self-proclaimed “Google Girl” who has been studying, using, and incorporating Google Tools at every opportunity, will share her expertise in a two-hour workshop, “Using Google Tools for Productive Collaboration,” on Tuesday, June 7, from 1 to 3 p.m., at Marlboro College Graduate Center, 2nd Floor, 28 Vernon St.

The workshop will include:

• Creating a Google site, because it is the way to organize one's Google presence.

• Incorporating Google Calendar, combining calendars on a Google webpage, and creating multiple views.

• Docs (similar to Word 2003).

• Sheets (spreadsheets similar to Excel 2003).

• Forms (collect data and store data in a Google Sheet).

• Slides (presentation software similar to PowerPoint 2003).

• YouTube, Google Albums, and Photo Editors.

More details about MacMenamin's Google training can be found at JilMac.com.

The free presentation comes courtesy of the New England Adobe User Group, which meets the first Tuesday of every month from 1 to 4 p.m. at the Marlboro College Graduate Center.

All are welcome to attend; however, anyone wishing to participate in the workshop must bring a laptop, have a Gmail account, and be comfortable in the Google environment.
