TAD Appendix A — Raw Background Research

Upon completion of the Individual Research Document (IRD) assignment, all content for Appendix A is complete (though it may well get updated over the coming weeks).  Appendix A is a compilation for all team members’ IRDs (the content pages, not the reference pages) into a single appendix.  To do this in Google Slides simply open each IRD file, select the content page/slide in the “filmstrip” (what the left bar is with thumbnails of all the slides is called; if not showing select Show filmstrip from the View menu).  Copy it (ctrl+C), then in the TAD click in the filmstrip after the page/slide the IRD content page is to follow, then paste (ctrl+V).  A popup window will give you choices on what formatting to use; select “Match styles in this presentation” (NOT “Keep original styles” nor “Link & keep original styles”).  If you do this right, the page/slide title should now read (in the TAD) “Appendix A — Raw Background Research”, not “Individual Research Document” as it did in the IRD file.

There are two (2) Appendix-A pages in the template as received.  Do NOT delete or move the first page; it is an introductory page and also serves as the table-of-contents link target.  The second page, at the end, should be retained at this point for future use.  You will copy and paste all IRD content pages between the two aforementioned pages.

You are done with Appendix A, with the exception of updates to any one or all of these pages, and the opportunity to use the additional one at the end, as noted above.
