This is not a compulsory item and is up to the individual student's choice. It is vital to ensure you have a separate copy of your work saved on a PC hard drive either at home or at school as a backup in case your flash drive is lost or damaged.

You will have to re-do any coursework that is lost if your flash drive is lost or damaged.
