How do I create a copy of a Google Doc to post as a Discussion reply?
In this tutorial, you will learn to make a copy of a Google Doc posted by your instructor in order to edit and post your version as a Discussion reply.
Important: Please make sure you are only logged in to your HSU Google account anywhere in the browser you are using, including to the browser itself.
Being logged in to another Google account, such as a personal account, could cause problems with this process.
3. Name the copy
Rename your copy, likely including your name, and click OK.
4. Edit the copy
Your copy of the Google Doc should be automatically opened in a new window. This is where you will edit the document before embedding it in the discussion.
Your changes will be saved automatically.
6. Embed the Google Doc
Click the More External Tools button displayed as a blue downward arrow icon, and then on Google Drive.
Locate your Google Doc by searching or browsing the list of your Google Drive contents. Select the document and click EMBED.
Click Post Reply on the bottom-right.
Note: You will see a blank box in edit mode. Your document will be viewable once posted.
