How To: Access your Google Drive Folder

•As part of the start of your web project, we have created a folder within Google Drive to keep and share all content. This will have been sent to you in an email in the form of a link. 

•If you are already signed in to Google, then all you will need to do is click the link provided. This will then take you to the folder, and it will automatically be added to your Google Drive. 

•You can view your Drive using the menu option on any Google site (including Google Search) that can be found in the top right corner of your browser.

•Once your folder has been added to your Google Drive, you can access it at any time through the “Shared With Me” section.
