The Digital Education Committee and the Professional Development Committee are organising a practical session on the use of Google Drive - a cloud-based storage and collaboration tool.
The session is designed for individuals who are new to Google Drive and want to learn how to use it effectively for professional use. The session will provide practical advice on how to navigate the Google Drive website, install the client on Window PCs and mobile phones, upload and edit files and how to add permissions. The session will also introduce Google Docs and how to use Google Drive links in VLE.
Elton Stivala is a Senior Lecturer in the Department of English at the Junior College. He obtained his Ph.D. in 2010 from the University of Malta. Before joining the Junior College, he worked for more than 15 years in the English as a Foreign Language (EFL) industry as a Language Centre Director for an international franchise of language schools. He was trained in language centre management and pedagogy in Princeton, New Jersey, USA. During this time, he was also responsible for various IT-related projects within a local group of companies. This fostered his interest in the various uses of technology in the language classroom, especially how new technologies assist in language teaching and learning.
