Google Docs through BroncoWeb - Re-Formatted!!!! :)

  • Log into BroncoMail
    • * http://broncoweb.boisestate.edu/ - click on “BroncoMail Login” on the left hand side of the page.
    •  Use your broncoweb username and password to log in
  • Access Google Docs & Creating a document
    •  Once into your email, click “Documents” in the top left of the page… very top of the page…
      •  Will open a new window
    • Under the “broncomail” Logo, click the “Create New” drop down
    • Select “Document” – this will open a new tab, or a new window depending on your setup on the computer.
    • In the top-center of the page beside the “Google docs” logo, is a square text-box for you to title your paper – type what you want it named in this box.
      • from here, you can copy & paste your existing work into the document just like you would do for any document/application on the computer.
    • Once you’re done, or just want to save it, in the top right of the screen is “Save Now”
      •  You won’t see much happen, other than the box will change to “Saved”
    •  When you’re done in Google Docs with your document, make sure it’s saved (google will auto-save it for you every few minutes, just in case something happens.) once it’s saved, you can close the window
  •  Opening your document again after it’s saved & Closed
    •  If you’re not in Google Docs yet, log back in like you did earlier.
    • Click on the “Home” or the “All Items” links in the left-hand column of the page.
    • In the main area of the window you’ll see the document you created earlier.
    •  Just click on the document name and it will open up for you.
