How to use Drop folder

Click the small triangle next to My Drive to expand your files.

Your Google Drive folders will appear. You will see folders with your class names and the word "Drop". These are the folders you will use to turn in google docs to your teacher.

Best practice for using Google Drive is to name and save each time you create a new document. Please follow these steps each time you create a new document. When you are ready to turn in your document to your teacher, make sure to use the Organize icon to add the document to the appropriate drop folder. See below or WATCH THIS VIDEO.

Reminder: Use Google Chrome for best results!

As soon as you create a new document, click on the title "Untitled Document" to rename it.

Type a new appropriate name and click OK.

Click the "Move to" icon.

Add the file to one or more folders. See details below image.

How to add file to one or more folders:

    • Click on a folder name to put that doc in just one folder (only takes one finger).

    • Command-click (Mac) or CTRL-click (Win) to put the document in two or more folders.

    • "One place, one finger. Two places, two fingers."

When you're ready, be sure to add your document to your class Drop folder so that your teacher can see it.
