FILE MANAGEMENT

All of your Files will be drafted or uploaded into Google Docs or Google Sites, which lives in the Internet or what we affectionately call the Cloud. This will allow you to access your work from any location that has Internet access.

HOW TO ORGANIZE YOUR STUFF 

File management, or organization, is a very important part of working with the computers. If you don’t save things in an organized way, it would be very easy to lose your work. Just like papers that you shove in your locker instead of putting them in their proper binder.
