Understand how to organise files and folders

Success Criteria

I can organise my files and folders in an effective manner

What do we know about folder management?

Using folders helps us to group similar files together
Name your folders in a way that makes sense and is easy to understand
Create subfolders inside your main folders to further organise your files
Use descriptive and specific names when saving files
Keep your files and folders tidy and avoid cluttering your desktop
Regularly delete files that you no longer need
Back up important files to a separate device or cloud storage to avoid losing them

Organising the House Folder

Create a main folder on your device called "House".
Inside the "House" folder, create two subfolders called "Downstairs" and "Upstairs".
Inside each of the subfolders, create subfolders for each room in your house (e.g., "Kitchen," "LivingRoom," "Bedroom," etc.).
Find pictures of at least 3 items from each room in your house and save them to the appropriate subfolder.
Make sure the names of the picture files are clear and specific (e.g., "Kitchen-cooker.jpg").

Create your subject folder

For each of your subjects (you can look at your timetable), create a folder.

Input and output devices

Now create a folder inside your Computing folder called Input and Output. Inside that create two folders, one called Input Devices and the other called Output Devices
Your next task is to find different input and output devices and save pictures of them into the folders. Make sure you save only input devices into the Input Devices folder and ouput devices into the Output Devices folder.
