Description

This LLTA offered a comprehensive experience that combined cultural immersion with educational growth. 

Teamwork involved individuals working together towards a common goal, utilizing their unique skills and strengths to contribute to the overall success of the project. When it comes to website development, teamwork becomes even more crucial as it requires various tasks such as designing, coding, content creation, and testing. One of the main advantages of using Google Drive for teamwork in website development is the ability to easily share and collaborate on files. With Google Drive, team members learned to upload and store their work in a central location, making it accessible to everyone involved in the project. This enabled real-time collaboration, where students could simultaneously work on the same document, made edits, and provide feedback. Additionally, Google Drive provided version control, allowing users to track changes and revert to previous versions if necessary. Another result of teamwork and using Google Drive is improved organisation and efficiency. By having all project-related files stored in one place, team members could quickly locate and access the resources they needed. This eliminated the time wasted searching for files across different platforms or email chains. Furthermore, students were presented with some of the features that Google Drive offers such as Google Docs for content creation, Google Sheets for data management, and Google Slides for presentations. By working together and leveraging the collaborative features of Google Drive, students as a team streamline their efforts, improved communication, and ultimately created a successful and impactful website.
