Multimedia computers found in classrooms these days are often cluttered with the many educational compact discs that students use for learning. Keeping the "computer area" neat and tidy should be the students' responsibility. You can give them some practical hints, such as keeping the work area free of papers and writing instruments. Make sure to tell them to keep all magnets away from the computer area. A good way to organize the multimedia CDs is to either use a store-bought CD organizer or simply use a shoebox to hold them. Have the students separate the CDs by subject area by using labelled index cards between the sections.
