Hello and welcome back to the new semester!
Did you know you can sign into Google Drive using your Whitewater Net-ID and password? You also get unlimited storage space! Your files in Drive can be reached from any smartphone, tablet, or computer. As a college student many of us have to present projects with a group. Google Drive lets you share a document with your group members so you can work on a project at the same time, and in different locations. Projects are also saved automatically, so don’t worry if you close a page on accident, it will have already been saved!
Google Docs is a great way to collaborate with team members when working on notes, or papers. https://www.google.com/docs/about/
Google Slides lets your ideas shine with a variety of presentation themes, hundred of fonts, embedded video, animations and more. https://www.google.com/slides/about/
Google Sheets lets you choose from a wide variety of budgets, schedules, and other pre-made spreadsheets. https://www.google.com/sheets/about/
Google Forms lets you run a survey or quickly create a team roster with a simple online form. Then check out the results, neatly organized in a spreadsheet. https://www.google.com/forms/about/
Wondering how to share a document in Google Drive ?
- Click on the desired project you want to share.
- Click on the Share button in the top right corner
- Add in the names or emails of the people you would to like share with and hit Done.
Gone are the days of having to get together with a group because you can only work on one device for a project! You can now worry less knowing you can all work on the same project from your own devices, anytime, anywhere!
