Editor's Notes
- #3: Question to ask: If I were a student who spent two semesters in a keyboarding class using Word 2010 and did manually all of the things that can now be generated or inserted in minutes, I would be pretty upset. Wouldn’t you???
- #4: Students are competing with the older folks who are still working. Students have to compete Why: more mature work attitude; harder for students.
- #5: Challenges that we have to meet industry’s needs.
- #15: Connie Here you see the full-page model that follows the narrative of the document design. Students key the first application using the full-page model. Note the excellent callouts that direct the student to the starting line, appropriate styles, margins, and bulleted list. Again the readability studies confirm the decisions to use the new fonts designed by Microsoft, 11-point font size with 1.15 line spacing. The automatic 10-point after the paragraph was a wise move. Just think of time spaced by only having to enter once after a paragraph. There are few times in our document production when short lines require us to remove space after the paragraph—lines of the letter address, signature line when name and title are on two different lines. You can teach your students to SHIFT+Enter to key those short lines. This illustration uses the Office theme which is the default document theme. In the report lessons students will learn to apply different document themes automatically saved in the Document Theme Gallery to learn that company branding and choice of brand colors is important and affordable for small businesses now who need branding.
