Week 2 - Using Microsoft Office

Lecture:

Today's lecture was rather basic. There wasn't anything in the lecture that I wasnt familiar with. We just learnt basic things such as the Microsoft Applications. I found the today's lecture simple to understand because I was familiar with everything in the lecture.



Tutorial:

In our tutorial today, we were asked to complete a range of tasks in Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel. I did learn quite a few new things because we used Windows Vista. I hadn't used Windows Vista before but I found it very straight forward. I did have trouble finding particular things; for example how to create the contents,
but when Hope showed me it seemed very easy. Windows Vista is easier to use; in comparison to Windows XP.

Workshop:



This is a print screen of my finished document in Microsoft Word. I completed each task step by step. I used Photo bucket to upload this print screen and I pasted the HTML code onto my blog. I find Photo bucket very efficient.

Using Microsoft Excel was very simple and I think it is very useful. I was asked to create a table with labels and headings, demonstrating my activities each day, create a chart demonstrating my average hours per week in activity and create a chart demonstrating hours per day social.I found this task very simple to follow. I do admite I did have a few troubles finding where particular things were for e.g creating a chart. I managed to complete the task and I did find it quite simple.





This is a printscreen of my final document in Microsoft Excel. I used Photo Bucket to paste the HTML code of my print screen. This image demonstrates that I have completed the task.

Reading 1:

This document helped me use Microsoft Word. It contained instructions which guided me to complete my Word document. The only problem was that this information was regarding an older version of Microsoft Word, in comparison to the new Windows Vista we are using, but it still helped me set up particular things throughout my document, such as setting up the contents page, etc.

Reading 2 Graphic File Format:

The docoment which reads Adobe Photoshop, is created to serve a purpose, which is to give the reader an understanding of Adobe Photoshop. The subheadings such as Photoshop Document, The Tagged-Image File Format and several more give the reader an understanding of using Adobe Photoshop and the effects of changing particular formats.
