Templates
1. Templates
Welcome to Module 5: Templates. To ensure consistency when creating content and to save time when creating the same document repeatedly, you can use a template. Templates can be created from Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, and Forms. In this module, you'll learn how to create and use templates as well as how to save and search for them in Google Drive. The template gallery has general templates provided by Google for documents like project proposals, meeting notes, timesheets, consulting proposals, and more. Each Google editor type (Docs, Sheets, Slides, and Forms) has its own template gallery. To open the gallery from My Drive or a shared drive, select New, hover over the menu arrow of the applicable Google editor type, and select From a template. A gallery opens in a new browser tab. The default view will be the General tab of your gallery. To see templates created by people in your organization, select the name of your organization to the left of the General tab. To use a template, select the thumbnail preview of it. A file will open in a new browser tab pre-populated with the content from the template. If the file is created in a shared drive, the members will have access to it according to their permissions and role. Edit the file using Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, or Forms. The default title of the new file is the same as the template name, so be sure to rename it.2. Let's practice!
