21. Start with the students by getting
them to use ONE document and
treat it like an exercise book. They
return to the same document and
just add the date before they start
work on it each day. When they
and the teacher can handle that
they move to collections and
creating individual Docs for different
things. It is much less
overwhelming introducing it like this.
