When you open a Google Doc, you will find a small button at the bottom right of the window which launches the Explore feature. The Explore feature offers a list of topics related to what you are typing at the time. It also allows you to do manual searches. For instance, if you are writing a paper about digital citizenship and need related images or more information, you can simply type "digital citizenship" in the search bar and receive a list of sources to help you in your research. When creating multi-page documents, another helpful tool is a table of contents, which is a list of document headings along with their page numbers. Google Docs can provide a table of contents with hyperlinks to sections of text with just a few commands, making it easy to apply navigation to a document. Adding page numbers also helps readers navigate effortlessly through a document. In this video, you will create a report on digital citizenship by adding page numbers, applying paragraph styles, creating a table of contents, and using the Explore feature.
