Doctopus Script for Google Apps

The script, Doctopus, for Google Apps is a huge time saver for teachers. Before Doctopus, teachers were stuck creating a template and sharing the file with the class. The students would then have to create a copy and share the file back. These steps were not only tedious, but often created mixups along the way.
