Google Sheets is an online spreadsheet program incorporating the basic features of Microsoft Excel or Apple Numbers, but adding real-time collaboration and sharing options that make it a great classroom and professional tool.

• Take collaboration to a whole new level!

• Create spreadsheets and share them with your students or colleagues, choosing whether they can edit, just comment on it, or only view it.

• Students can create spreadsheets individually, collaborate with classmates in real-time, and/or share them with you for review.

• Eliminate compatibility frustrations caused by differences in software programs and devices. Everyone can use Google Sheets.

• Access from any internet-capable device any time.

• Ensure all collaborators are doing their part by referencing the revision history of the spreadsheet.

• Use Google Sheets with your students and/or colleagues.
  
• Be sure to use the features that are unique to Google Sheets: sharing or collaboration and using at least one Add-On.
