[nabs-l] organizing print papers

[Misty Dawn Bradley]

Hi Sophie,
When I was in high school and now also in college, as soon as I print the 
assignment, I take my small slate and stylus and Braille a short title and 
what subject it is for on either the top or bottom of the page. After this, 
I punch holes in it and put it in a binder. I have dividers in the binder 
for each subject, so I place the labeled assignment in the section where the 
divider is for that subject. I also put Braille labels on the tabs of the 
dividers so that I will know what subject each divider is for so that I can 
quickly flip to that section of the binder or notebook. I like the idea of 
sending assignments electronically, but, unfortunately, not all instructors 
will accept them in that format. All of my high school teachers mainly took 
printed assignments, and I have had a few college instructors here and there 
that still prefer having printed hard copies just because they just 
preferred it that way, even though they could have just had us email it or 
submit it through Moodle or Blackboard. I think it depends on the teacher or 
instructor, so you could always ask your teachers if they will allow you to 
submit assignments through email. Otherwise, for printed assignments, I have 
found that labeling them in Braille was the most helpful way, and also 
keeping them organized in a notebook or binder.
Hope this helps,
Misty

Hey Listers,

I'm in high school, and most of the time, I print out assignments
to turn them in to my teachers. However, I have no way of knowing
which of the printed papers in my bag is for math and which for
English, etc, so I often have to fumble around in my bag, pull
out all of my paprs, and ask my friends to tell me which one is
which. How do you guys keep your print papers organized? Are any
systems particularly effective? Any help would be greatly
appreciated.

Sincerely,
Sophie
