As teachers and educators, Google Drive is one of the fundamental tools in our digital toolkit. Whether you want to compose a document, create a presentation, design a sheet, or share a beautiful drawing , Google Drive provides you with the tools to do that on any device and anywhere you are with an internet connection . Given this central place of Google Drive in our work, we went ahead and compiled this list from Google Help Centre featuring almost everything you need to know in order to tap into the full educational potential of this platform.
