INTRODUCTION

Keeping notes for every class is something you have come to expect. Engineers maintain notes in what is called an engineering notebook. The engineering notebook is a record of the processes engineers use to create solutions and a description of their solutions. The engineering notebook is so important that it is considered a legal document.
In this activity, you will setup and organize your notebook .
