Safe Saving Practices and Writing Groups

Safe Saving Practices
Today in class, we discussed electronic resources that will help you develop safe saving practices. In addition to saving documents to Word, using a flashdrive, hard drive, or emailing yourself copies of your work, there are also online options that include Google Drive (which is provided as a part of a Google account) and DropBox (which can be found at dropbox.com). As a precaution, I save my important work in 3 different places. You may use whatever combination of these makes you feel the most comfortable, but I suggest getting into the habit of saving files in multiple locations in case of a computer crash.

Writing Groups
As you begin the drafting process, you will be introduced to your writing group, which is a group consisting of you and 4 of your classmates that will work together all semester. You may be asked to get together for group work or discussion and this will be the group you work with during writing workshops. You'll learn more about this process as the workshop process is explained. The groups are divided randomly as follows:

Section 35 (10am)

Group 1: William, Courtney, Wesley, Parker, Thomas
Group 2: Sam, Austin, Melissa, Zac, Marissa
Group 3: Ali, Jack, Anna, Curt, Rob
Group 4: Lukas, Tucker, Hana, Kevin, Beth
Group 5: Erin, Michael, Harrison, Blake, Riley
