How can students collaborate on a Google Doc project?

Students can collaborate on a Google Doc project using the blue "Share" button, which is a key feature that facilitates real-time collaboration. When a student clicks on this button, they have the option to invite others to view, comment on, or edit the document. This sharing capability allows multiple users to work simultaneously, making real-time updates and contributions possible, which enhances the collaborative experience.

Using the blue "Share" button also enables control over what permissions each collaborator has, ensuring that students can manage who can edit or just view their work. This function effectively transforms a single document into a collaborative space where ideas can be exchanged and developed organically.

Collaboration through emailing invitations, creating new documents repeatedly, or limiting interaction to commenting does not leverage the full capabilities of Google Docs for teamwork. Instead, sharing the document directly maximizes efficiency and engagement among students working together.
