A student gave everyone edit permission in a shared project file and someone added wrong data. What is the wisest correction?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Give edit permission only to trusted members
Edit permission allows a person to change spreadsheet content, so giving it to every user increases the chance of accidental or unauthorised changes. Access should follow each member’s actual role; trusted contributors may edit while others can view or comment. A public control setting and sharing passwords reduce security, so B is correct.
