Re: [Phys-l] Google Docs use in class?



Ah...the manual method. I see. I thought maybe there was a way to allow
only one edit of a spreadsheet cell or something.
Thanks!

I've been playing around with the forms etc and find them very

you explain how you made the parent sign-up sheet that only allowed

only sign up for open slots? Sounds awesome.


It wasn't as cool as it sounds -- I allowed them to select available
times from a drop-down list (one of the form options), then when
someone asked for a time slot I edited the form and removed the time
from the list. It required constant attention to prevent double
bookings (not that there was a mad rush to sign up, there were no
problems in this regard).
