Module 2 · Lesson 1
Drive Home and My Drive
Navigate Drive and understand where personal files and shared content appear.
Why It Matters
Navigate Drive and understand where personal files and shared content appear.
Google Workspace is most useful when the apps are treated as one connected system rather than separate tools.
Practical Method
- Choose the right app. Start with the job you need to complete.
- Organise before creating. Use a clear file name and save work in the correct Drive location.
- Check sharing. Give only the access people need.
- Collaborate clearly. Use comments, suggestions, mentions and version history.
- Review and hand over. Confirm ownership, access, final status and next actions.
Ian's practical tip: Before sending a link, open the Share panel and check exactly who can access the file and what they can do.
Practice Task
Complete a small real-world task using this feature. Record where the file is stored, who has access and what the next action is.
