There’s a tool for Google Docs that is similar to the Track Changes tool in Word or Pages. If you're reviewing a document and want to suggest changing some text, you can suggest edits to the owner of the document without affecting the original text. Your suggestions won't change the original text until the document owner approves them. If a suggestion is denied then it reverts to the original text. These suggestions are easy for the owner to see because they appear in green text with a detailed comment on the side of the document that shows the actual suggested change. Once you are in Suggesting mode, you just need to start typing to begin suggesting edits. Using Suggesting mode is more efficient than just leaving comments or actually changing the owner’s document. This feature of Google Docs is great for proofreading, grading, and peer editing.
