Setting Up Your Google Drive
@SeanHCole
1. Open a new Google search page.
If you are using Internet Explorer, it will look slightly different, but these steps will still apply.
2. Click here
3. Then click here
4. Login
You should change this password as soon as possible.
Change password by clicking at the top right of your screen once you have logged in, and then go to ‘Security’
I’ve arranged my drive like this.
‘01 Skills’ to ‘06 Geo Grade 12’ are folders into which I drag the folders my students have shared with me and into which they save their assignments.
‘07 Resources’ contains the folders I share with my students – past papers, enrichment, etc.
More on sharing later!
5. Click ‘Create’ and choose ‘Folder’. Repeat as necessary. You can create sub-folders by first clicking the folder you want to create sub-folders in and then creating a new folder
6. Add content: First click on the folder you want to copy files into
Then open Windows Explorer – Find the files you want, select them and copy them…
7. Paste your files in this area
A pop up window will appear telling you how much of the upload has been completed. With our fast new internet, this should be quite quick!
8) Here’s how to share a resources folder with students:
Right click the folder you want to share
9) Click ‘Share’
10) Choose this option (Students can only access files when they are logged on to the your domain)
11. Select and copy this URL
12. Click here
13) Paste URL copied previously here and click ‘shorten url’ 14) Copy the shortened URL which will
appear here and share with your students
STUDENTS SHOULD ALSO CREATE A FOLDER TO SHARE WITH YOU.THEY DO IT THE SAME WAY YOU JUST DID… ALMOST
Students click ‘Create’ and choose ‘Folder’. Students will name this folder: Class Name Subject. Example: 8C John Smith English
Students should choose this option and enter your Google Apps for Education gmail address
Students should change this to ‘CAN EDIT’
