Using both Microsoft word and power point and using Goggle Docs and Slides, I am more familiar with which one is best to use in certain situations. I have always used Microsoft, and never really got the chance to use Google Docs or Slides.Honestly, I ran into a lot of issues when using Google docs. First, the formatting was not as easy to access and the fonts were not the same as in Word. I was getting pretty frustrated. In that instance, I would recommend Word over Docs, however I really enjoyed using Google Slides. The options for personalizing, in my opinion, were a lot nicer than in PowerPoint. For students, I would recommend using Microsoft over Google, mainly because it is a lot more self explanatory.
I found this article interesting on Word vs. Docs.
Lauren, I love the look of your blog page! I think that Microsoft too is the better program. I ran into many issues with the assignment because I think it was more geared towards Microsoft programs instead of Google. Even though I think Microsoft is a better program for myself, I think that for a classroom, Google is superior because it can be shared and distributed easier. Great post!
ReplyDeleteHi Lauren!
ReplyDeleteI liked how simple you kept your post because sometimes it can be hard to not ramble on (like I find myself doing), and it was nice that you found and article and attached it. I also think Microsoft is a better program, I find myself writing my essays more often on Word than Docs. In schools now, there is definitely a bigger push for students to use Google just because I think it more convenient since students can access their work from home and share and collaborate with other students and teachers.
Hi Lauren!
ReplyDeleteI agree with you saying google docs has way more to offer when it comes to personalizing your slides. Also, I agree with Microsoft over all being the easier one to use. Good points in your blog!
