But no, in an effort to be organized and clear, I choose to move the zipped file to my class folder. There’s no confusion as to which assignment for which section of which class from which semester I have – it’s all in the name.įrom here, I could simply open the zipped file, and then click the “Extract all files” link at the top of the window. When you look at all the information that Oncourse packs in to the name of the zipped file, it’s pretty impressive. Here’s a more true-to-life example inspired by my class.Ĭomp_1_v3_final-SP12_IN_SPAN_S399_99999.zip Obviously in real life most of those come out shorter. Oncourse is also hyper-organized (evidently we have this in common), so the zipped file that I save to my computer has a very detailed name: AssignmentName-Semester-Campus-Department-CourseNumber-SectionNumber.zip In Assignments 2, I make regular use of the “Download All” option, so that I can grade all of my students’ submissions for a particular assignment at once.
Any time I see two or more files in a folder that have something in common, I make a new sub-folder and drop them in.Īs I’ve transitioned to paperless grading in Oncourse, particularly for my Spanish composition class, I’ve run across “Destination path too long” errors that baffled me. My virtual desktop is almost completely empty, save a few shortcuts. No one looking at my office (or my house) would suspect it, but all of my computer files are very neatly stored and nested, sub-folder within sub-folder. I’ve encountered a problem I never thought I’d have: I’m too organized.
