GoogleDocs has a Share feature that allows anyone you choose to

View and/or Edit your work. This assignment must be Shared with
me.

Under the heading “Add People” add misstomlin@gmail.com. Ensure
the drop down menu says “Can Edit” and “Send Email notifications” is
checked.

ready to begin. Respond to the stated prompt in the
space below the directions. A mini rubric has been
provided that explains how the assignment will be graded.
