     I loved learning about all of the different custom designs and questionnaires that you can create using google forms. I didn't realize how unique and creative that you can get with a form. My favorite part was learning about all the different colors, images, and themes that you can attach to a questionnaire. I also realized just how complex you can get with some of the types of questions. It can really make quizzes and tests unique!      Slides was another google application that we explored. However, it wasn't my first time using the program, I did learn a lot more about the specific aspects that it does offer. I would say that my favorite part of slides is the presenter notes. It really cool that you can leave yourself extra notes or key phrases that you want to talk about during a presentation and the audience won't be able to see it. It's a wonderful guide that you can use as a presenter to be more prepared and ready for the presentation. 

     I had no idea exactly how many formulas and specials graphs that we could create using sheets. There were so many new skills and techniques that I learned watching the google workspace videos. I personally only knew about the multiplication and sum functions in sheets before. I didn't realize there was a whole list of functions that we could use to help in calculations or figuring out different reports that we need to help the business. There was also different filters and viewing windows that you can create in order to single out various items or aspects in the spreadsheet. I really liked the visual graphics that the software could populate based on the numbers in the spreadsheet. It read the information, and then could formulate a pie chart or graph. There were lots of graphics to choose from! It was wonderful to learn about all of the different options that google sheets has to offer.      Google meet is also super useful. I had no idea that google meet even existed before.
