How do people use the Workspaces? I am looking for effective study hints on how to use Workspaces more efficiently.

I am using public computers, mostly at the Employment office or at the library, so it takes extra effort to switch from the default Internet Explorer browsers over to Chrome or Firefox. I'm wondering if it is worth the effort, or if I should continue to take notes on paper as I have been doing.

I would just take continue notes (I personally find writing notes can often help you organize the content in a way that is more relevant to you..and maybe more memorable).

Note1: Some courses have zip downloads that replicate some of the code in the workspaces --just something to look out for (as they should be downloadable even in Internet Explorer).

Note2: Most text/code files can be opened in Notepad or Wordpad even if the Employment Office computers don't have a starter version of MsWord.

Thanks, James! It's good to know that my notes are my best strategy. I will try finding the nuggets of code in the Workspaces, and will check out Notepad and Wordpad options.

Thanks again!
