A quick note about our resources
For the majority of our resources we use the PDF file format. Here are a few important notes to help you make the most of them…
Opening the PDF
- Download the PDF to your computer rather than using it in the web browser.
- Make sure you have a PDF reader on your computer or device. We recommend Adobe Reader (grab it for free here). Already have Reader? Make sure it’s up to date by checking the version number here.
- Once you’re all set with a PDF reader, click on the activity sheet icon (right click for PC, control-click for Mac) and download or save as.
Working digitally
- Many of our activity sheets are editable, which means you can type right into the document and save your changes.
- BIG IMPORTANT NOTE – make sure you’ve opened your activity sheet in Adobe Reader before you begin to type in your work otherwise you might not be able to save your changes.
- If you want to do a quick check, type a few words into a field, hit save, close the PDF, and then reopen to check that your work is still there.
Working with pen and paper
- We love this method too. Just because you can save your work in the PDF doesn’t mean you have to. Studies actually show that writing out thoughts, ideas, and brainstorms long hand is significantly more powerful than typing.
- If this is your preferred way to go simply open the activity sheet within Adobe Reader, print the document and use the blank spaces to record your answers.
- Alternatively, use the PDF as a guide for brainstorming and dreaming in your journal if you like that pen-to-paper action!
If any of our PDF resources cause you trouble reach out to us at help@thegoodalliance.org and we’ll help you get set up. We want you spending your time gaining insights and taking action, not fighting with technology (that’s never fun!).
