Module 1: Introduction to MS Word (4 days)
Even though many of you have probably used Microsoft Word for personal and school use, I would take a guess that many of you don't how how to use it efficiently and effectively, because you are unaware of all of its features. Heck, I'm still learning how to use it to its full potential! So, before we can "run" with all of the other activities in the other modules for this course, we must first learn to "walk", so we will spend some time learning the basic features of Microsoft Word.
- I understand that this module may not be as interesting or as exciting as other activities, so it is my desire, and it should be yours, to move through it quite purposefully, but briskly. If we don't dawdle and waste time completing this introduction to MS Word, then we can move on to other, more interesting things, so please do your part and keep up! You will be required to complete about 5 mini-Lessons per day, so we can complete this whole module in four days. - For this introduction to Microsoft Word, I am providing a link to an external site. At this site, you will go through a variety of mini-Lessons that explain various features of Microsoft Word. - Read through the various mini-Lessons in order. - All of the mini-Lessons have a video for you to watch. Be sure to watch these videos before you begin going through the mini-Lessons. pay close attention to what you see and hear. - The mini-Lessons have a number of pages that you will have to read through. The page links are at the bottom of each page. - At the very end of Each mini-Lessons there is a "Challenge!" activity to complete. When you are ready to complete the "Challenge Activity", call me or the EA over to witness you manipulate the practice document and complete the "Challenge Activity." This practice document will serve as your assignment for those mini-Lessons You WILL NOT print off anything! You must show me or the EA your work. - Go to the following site, and look for the section titled, "Word Basics" and follow the schedule of mini-Lessons below: http://www.gcflearnfree.org/word2013 schedule of mini-modules:
