Google Drive Challenge
Your Mission if you choose to accept....
Read and complete each of the 6 tasks below. If you need help, there are links to video tutorials on how to complete the task. When you finish a challenge email a screenshot of the challenge to Karen, kkjar@dusd.net. In the subject line be sure to include Your Name, the Challenge # or task.
Challenge 1 Fonts
One thing I've heard about Drive is the default fonts aren't very exciting. Google has made it easy for you to pick and choose the fonts that you would like available in your drive. Add 3 fonts to your drive. Take a screenshot and email it to Karen.
Challenge 2 Upload a PDF
You know how to download documents to your computer. This challenge is to teach you how to upload a file or document from your computer to your Google Drive. Take a screenshot and email it to Karen.
Challenge 3 Folders
One way to organize your documents is to create a folder, in your Google Drive and move documents into those folders. Then change the color of your folder to help you organize and identify different folders, such as make your math folder blue. Take a screenshot and email it to Karen.
Challenge 4 Favorite Folders
Starring a folder is another way to organize your google drive. Star a couple of folders that you use often so it's easier for you to find the information. Take a screenshot and email it to Karen.
Challenge 5 Add to My Drive from Shared with Me
Many times people share files or folders with you. It can be easier to remember and access them if they are in My Drive. Move a "shared with me" folder (Alameda Technology Shared with) to your Drive. Take a screenshot of the file including the "My Drive" and email it to Karen.
Challenge 6 Add Google Drive to your iPad
Make Google Drive truly mobile by adding the app to your iPad. Go to the app store, find the Google Drive App and "get" it for your iPad. Take a screen shot of the page on your iPad with the Google Drive app, then email it to Karen.
