Class Blog Microsoft Office

Have you ever wanted to do anything with word processors and couldn’t figure it out? Have you wanted to type something really special and could not figure out how to get the computer to format it so it would look the way that you wanted? Describe one instance of a time when you wanted to do something in Microsoft Office and could not figure out how to accomplish it? What did you do? If this has never happened to you–then tell of a time when you helped a colleague with this same kind of problem.

I think with computers there is always something that I want to do, but cannot figure it out and my vision is not always the same as my finished project on word, or with anything technology which can be very frustrating for me e.g., doing my Venn diagram was very frustrating I could not get it exactly the way I had vision it, and my poor husband came home for lunch to a mad, frustrated women. Thinking of a time when I could not figure out something on Microsoft Office, oh so many to choose from. One instance was years ago while I was an FCC provider for the Army I wanted to make a newsletter for my parents and I did not know how to make one, so I talked with my director about wanting to make newsletters for my parents, she provided me books on how to make newsletters using Microsoft Office and a few months later her husband offered a computer class to all of the providers.

  1. Amy,
    The Venn Diagram was not EASY for me either. Sure give me a pencil and a peice of paper and the assingment would have been done in no time. I did not have the program with all the fun extras, so I was limited to using Microsoft Word to create my Venn Diagram. It took me a very long time!! Especially trying to add text for the answer key.

  2. I have yet to do my Venn Diagram. The way it was looking on the video didn't look very hard to do unless I am being oh so naive and not bracing myself for this. Hope it won't be that bad. If I have issues, would you mind me emailing you or write to you and see if you can help? I'm sure I will be ok if I try youtube or the help link. But just incase LOL. Thanks for all for the insight for the Venn Diagram.
