Creating a document without knowing what I am to write about is difficult. Therefore, I am writing this document and going to export it as my blog for this assignment. The first thing I noticed is that after writing a sentence I was asked to create a title for this document. I like that, this way I don't end up with 30 different untitled documents because I forgot to give it a name. It seems that it would be easy to share this document, but I didn't have anyone to share it with so I haven't tested that.
The next thing I want to try is different formatting.
I see that
bold,
italics and
underline are easy to use. In fact the familiar
shortcuts that I use with word are available for them as well,
ctrl b, ctrl i, ctrl u. I see that the subscript and superscript are readily available. This is useful for writing math notations such as (x
2-y
2)
2Since I am a math person I like to check to see if writing out math equations is possible.

as you can see, very simple. There is a built in equation editor that is really easy to follow. This would make it possible for my students to share problems without looking odd.

a fraction like this typed without an equation editor would look like this [-9(x-3)^2]/5 and it is harder to see what is going on that way.
Changing colors is also pretty easy.

and I can even add a smiley face, or in this case a reminder to wash your hands because the first week back to school is horribly full of germs. I am interested in coming back to this when I actually have a document to create so that I have more to try to do.
This table is very easy to navigate, I'd say it is even easier than Word. Very nice. Now to try posting this to my blog!
OK, I am hooked. Should I ever want to post an equation to my blog, I now know the best way to do that. If I were try try to make those same equations here in this format it would be difficult as I am unfamiliar with html code. However, the equation editor in the Zoho documents allows me to create the equation in a familiar format and post it here seamlessly. I love it!
ReplyDeleteI just noticed that the smiley face didn't transfer correctly, but that's ok. I still love the tables and equations.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the help. I was able to transfer to my blog.
