In this course, students learn and develop skills in the most commonly used features and functions in Microsoft Office software applications that are integral to school and the workplace. Each module in the course focuses on a specific application feature (i.e., Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, and PowerPoint presentations), providing basic instruction and building practical skills through assignments and projects. The course projects also allow students to create artifacts they can use later in school and work as templates for common tasks. This engaging and practical course culminates with the use of Word to create a professional resume, the use of Excel to perform various analyses of a set of data to provide a report, and the use of PowerPoint to create a persuasive presentation, so students are well prepared to efficiently and effectively use MS Office (or similar office applications) in their academic and vocational careers or in volunteer service roles.
