More details
DescriptionMost of us are familiar with Word's basic tools for creating simple letters or even basic reports. However, when it comes to writing essays, assignments, dissertations and academic papers; there are a lot of very useful tools that should be used, but often don't get used. This could be because the student doesn't know how to use the tools, or sometimes it's because the student doesn't know they exist.
This course provides the student with an extensive range of Word tools and formatting options that will not only save a huge amount of time, but will also give documents a professional 'polished' look, ready for submission. On completion of the course, students will be able to create documents that include Table of Contents, Indexes, Citations and Bibliographies, and much more.
The course is divided into 6 sections and a total of 27 lectures. Each lecture will 'walk' the student through the content by way of a demonstration video (including captions and transcript) and also a downloadable document. In total there is just over 1½ hours of video learning. The average run-time for each video is 3½ minutes, so students should find they can comfortably cover the lectures in short bursts. Before starting a lecture, students should download the Resources 'Information' document that accompanies the video and also provides useful reminder tips and shortcuts. Students can also download the Word document demonstrated in the video, so that they can have a go by following the video instructions.
At the end of each section there is a short multiple-choice quiz. If the student gives the incorrect answer for any question, they will be directed to the video that contains the answer.
Students are encouraged to provide any comments, questions or suggestions relating to the course. Where appropriate the course instructor will provide additional content.
