A small practice for the half-labelled folder

A practical exercise: Mark the current version and move earlier attempts to a separate place.

Original practice · Optional exercise · A place for unfinished work

Choose a low-stakes example you can change without affecting another person’s private information or commitments.

  1. Describe the current situation in one sentence. The example here is: A folder holds both current drafts and older versions.
  2. Mark the current version and move earlier attempts to a separate place.
  3. Compare the result with the difficulty you named. Write one concrete observation.
  4. Keep, adapt, or stop the experiment. A note about why you stopped is a valid result.

Try a question

Which part is an observation, and which part is an assumption you could check?
