Comments in Google

Do you ever put a comment on a student's homework and wonder if they have seen it or resolved it? If you really want to make sure your comments are read and changes are made, send your comment directly to that person. 

Here's how:

1. Open the document, spreadsheet, or presentation.
2. Insert and type a comment
3. Somewhere in the comment (I usually do this first thing) begin typing the name (with the first letter capitalized). When the correct person is suggested click their name. You'll see it in the comment and the email address of the person you want to see the message should have a + in front of it (Sometimes I will type the + before I start typing the name)
4. Click Comment (See picture below)

If you are sending the comment to the student for the first time, you may have to type in their entire email. What a great way to give feed back to students!

Happy Commenting!
