Practical uses in education Part 1 – Adrive
July 3rd, 2008 by misterel
Adrive popped into conversation today with my network manager. He happened to mention that it had been updated and now no longer needed Java to get it working. I then mentioned that I was about to back up my ‘My Docs’ off the school network ready to start afresh next year… a cunning plan soon developed. A week on Monday I will be running a ‘training’ session on how to use Adrive and back up their user areas.
The beauty of this is that staff will have a back up of their work which they can access from home. Usually home access isn’t an issue as we have RM Easylink. But for 2 reasons this is going to be problematic. Firstly, Easylink has ‘issues’ with Vista and secondly our network will be down a lot over the summe due to high levels of maintanance and software upgrades,
50GB free storage, put to a good use in a school enviroment. Step 2, educating the kids to use Adrive to back up their work.
