Saving your work you can save your work to several drives

 A jump drive is required for this course to store protect and transport your large digital files.

Web Drive - this may be the most safest and intelligent  type of storage as it will allow you to work anywhere there is internet (see setting up a free web drive using ZYMIC,  any other free online system) .....

My recommendation is for all students to get a web drive and start to store all files there while building a portfolio at the same time.
