Advanced Collaboration and Productivity

This unit develops intermediate G Suite skills for coordinating schedules, contacts, and shared resources while creating and refining documents, spreadsheets, and presentations. Students will practice collaborative workflows across Calendar, Contacts, Docs/Sheets/Slides, Meet, Chat, and Groups, and prepare to apply these skills to complex, real-world tasks in the capstone unit.

Learning Objectives

• Apply advanced calendar and contact management techniques to create, import, subscribe to, and synchronize events and contacts across devices and accounts
• Demonstrate collaborative document, spreadsheet, and presentation workflows by reviewing, commenting, sharing resources in meetings, and managing versions and access
• Analyze data and visual content to produce effective charts, pivot tables, columns, lists, images, and footnotes in spreadsheets and documents for clear communication
• Evaluate and configure real-time and asynchronous communication tools (video meetings, chat rooms, bots, and groups), including privacy and meeting settings, to support secure and efficient collaboration
