Introduction to Google Drive

Google Drive is a cloud-based storage service. It lets you upload and save different types of files, such as documents and videos, to the Google servers. As well as being an easy way to back up your files, you can also use Drive to share files with other people, so you can collaborate. But to do that effectively, you’ll need a good working knowledge of how Drive works. This course will show you the basics. Each mini-video covers a bite-sized topic, so you can find out exactly what you need to know, at a pace that suits you.

This entry-level course contains useful information on:

• Navigating the Google Drive screen, including menu options and the search bar
• Uploading, downloading, opening, and creating files and folders
• Managing files, including how to find, delete, restore, and reorder files
