Module 2.1
I. Introduction to Email and Drive System
A. Introduction
All Chaminade students should be given Chaminade email accounts. It is essential that you check your email frequently
(at least once each day) because important messages from your professors, university administrators, and fellow students
will be sent to that address. You may choose to forward email to a different account (e.g. a yahoo or gmail account), but
your official mail will be sent to your Chaminade account and you will be responsible for reading it.
The objectives of Module 2.1 are:
1. to obtain Chaminade student email address;
2. to log into Chaminade student email (Gmail);
3. to access Chaminade student documents (Drive);
4. to edit Google Drive Documents
B. Getting Started
