Week of Sept. 25

This week I completed my first exam. What did I learn? There is a LOT about word processing that I didn't know! Honestly, I thought this portion of the class would be the "easy" part. Word processing is certainly what I have the most experience with, as far as computers are concerned. I had no idea there were so many applications and possibilities that come with Word. Thankfully, we were allowed to use our notes and Microsoft Word Help. I am grateful to now know how to better utilize this program. I am also grateful that I have notes to remind me of how to do it! My husband has asked me to please hold on to all my notes from this class, because he was also unaware of many of the applications. (Mail Merge is his favorite new discovery!)

My nerves were high during the exam, but I am pleased with my score. We are now embarking on Power Point, with which I have had no experience up to this point. It is something I have wanted to learn for awhile, and there is no doubt it will be useful in my teaching.
