Students who don’t have internet access at home
SuggestionsIf you have a computer at home, you can save your work on Google Documents to a floppy. You can save it as a Word document, or, if you use a different word processor, you can save it as an rtf document, which any word processor should be able to open.
You can also bring work you did at home on Word in to class on a floppy and upload it to Google (or just copy and paste it). If you want, you can also email your work (as a Word attachment) to me. That way, it will be accessible to you when you get to school. We can open it on my computer and paste it into Google Documents.
If you don’t have a computer at home, print a paper copy of your work before you leave class. You can continue writing and editing on paper and enter those changes into the digital document when you get to school.
I know this is a bit of a hassle, but I think it’s quite important that you get accustomed to creating and managing your work in a digital environment (computers have complicated all of our lives, but they’ve also provided so many advantages that we all use them). I want you to be as comfortable as possible using computers and the internet to do your work.
