Save and name files in subject folders
When to use this goal
For students who lose work because files are named Untitled or saved wherever the program puts them. Present levels in typing short words and opening a file decide fit.
- Baseline
- Check the student's drive for files from the last month: how many are untitled or outside folders. Then observe two saves and mark each step.
- Tips
- Set up the subject folders with the student at the start of the year. The same habit carries to job and home files. Pair with organization goals if lost work is a pattern.
- Limits
- Cloud tools save automatically, which hides the save step; focus on naming and folders. The checklist does not cover sharing files; see ca-dig-024.
