Saving Work to Lab Computers
1) You will not store your work on these computers because too many students use these computers and that would require a lot of storage. So every time you start working on a new assignment you will right click the Desktop and say New Folder (Figure D)
2) Rename the Folder whatever the Assignment name is on Classroon
3) Everything you save for that assignment will go to this folder.
4) When you are finished with the assignment you will drage the entire folder to your Digital Photography Fall Semester folder on Google Drive.
5) Once you are sure the folder and its contents have been saved to Google Drive you will delete all of its contents by dragging the folder to the Trash bin. Then you will right click the Trash bin and click Empty Trash.
