Hi I think you should show me the best way to organise my folders on my computer desktop for university work


Tidy desktop; tidy mind.

I think the first thing to do is; in the documents section of your computer have a University folder. This allows you to separate your Uni work from other important stuff such as your CV and your Nan's address that you saved in Word one time for a forgotten reason. Secondly, organising the documents into years allows for quick searching. You could even go as far as splitting the years up into semesters if that's the kind of person you are (turns out, that's just the kind of person I am. As you can see) Lastly, separate your documents into the different modules that you are taking.

You might also find it useful to have a drafts folder within the module folders so that when you are drafting pieces of work you can save the old drafts into the folder for quick reference and to avoid printing out and handing in the wrong copy in a mad rush on deadline day.

The screen print might make this all slightly clearer. Hope that helps!
