| 1st Semester Assignments:
Our first semester will start with basic keyboarding and typing skills. I realize this may be redundant and tedious for some of you, but we all need to learn how to “touch type” with all of our fingers – advanced “hunt & peck” just doesn’t cut it. Next we will explore all that MS Word has to offer and end the semester by creating advanced Powerpoint Presentations. ** Formatting Example for Jobs Support Our Troops For Veteran’s Day Backgammon Rubric Buzzle.com Work Sheet Family Tree PowerPoint Presentation Rubric ***NOTE: This project will be combined with a short test on the day of your final for final grade. |
