  • Documents in Google Apps appear there, with extensions like .gdoc and .gsheet, and if you double-click them they open in your web browser. Offline editing is not supported. Still, you do not have to use Google Apps with Google Drive.

  • Why go to Google Apps for Education at all? Bud Hunt gave a very good answer, one that I agree with about 80%.
