Organizing Your Digital Locker
Digital locker = Google Drive
Digital Locker
Think of your Google Drive as your Digital Locker. It's just as important to have an organized Google Drive as it is to have an organized binder or locker. When you organize your Google Drive, you can easily access classwork, assignments, and projects. If you take the time to organize now, you will be able to streamline all your schoolwork, feel organized, and ready to go!
Google Drive Organization
Step 1: Create a Folder for the Year
In the top left corner of your drive, click on + New, Folder to create a new folder. Title it the name of the grade you just completed - for example, 9th Grade.
Step 2: Move last Year's Documents into the Folder
Take time to move every document (Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, etc.) you created last year into your new folder. That way, it won't clutter your new documents next year. You can either drag and drop documents into the folder or right click on the document and click Move To →and then select the folder.
Step 3: Organize Other Documents
Take time to create more folders to organize any other documents that are still loose in your drive. This may mean making a folder for previous grades, clubs, sports, etc. Taking some time now to organize will save you tons of time for the future. Plus, it's easy to do but will make you feel much better!
