This
course is for the
novice
user who has little or no experience with
Microsoft Word except for our
Word 2007 Basic 1,
Basic 2,
and
Basic
3 courses.
We will
begin by learning about inserting Pictures into
your documents. You'll see the sample pictures that come with Windows,
learn how to insert, resize, move, rotate, and delete pictures. You'll
also learn about text wrapping.
Next, you'll learn how to copy a picture
from just about any Web site, save that picture to your
Windows desktop, and then incorporate that picture into your Word
documents.
You will learn how to adjust the
brightness and contrast of your pictures, use the Picture Style
Gallery to add effects, and change the picture shape, border,
and other settings.
Next, we'll learn how to use Clip
Art in our documents. You'll explore Word's Clip Art Organizer,
learn how to search for Clip Art by keywords, and how to recolor Clip
Art.
In the next lesson, work with
Shapes and Text Boxes. You'll learn about the
Drawing Tools, the Shape Style Gallery, shadow and 3D effects. You'll
learn how to add text to almost any shape, and how to insert Text Boxes.
Next we'll learn about SmartArt.
We'll see how to make simple diagrams, like a Basic Chevron Process.
You'll learn how to change the layout of SmartArt, the SmartArt Style
Gallery, how to add items, change shape styles, and how to delete
SmartArt.
In the next lesson, you'll learn how to
add Charts to your Word documents using Microsoft
Excel. You'll see the different chart types, how to enter data into an
Excel spreadsheet, and how to use the Chart Style Gallery.
In Word 2007, Excel is
very important for working with charts. Excel comes with most versions
of Microsoft Office. If you don't have Excel, however, don't worry. This
lesson is only about 7 minutes long, so the rest of the course will
apply to you.
Next, you'll learn about WordArt,
the WordArt Gallery, letter spacing, WordArt styles, and how to change
the borders and the shape of your WordArt.
Again, this is the perfect class for
anyone who is new to Microsoft Word 2007, and has finished my
Word 2007 Basic 1,
Basic 2, and
Basic
3 courses. If you
have little or no experience with word processing, or you just want to
get familiar with how Word 2007 works, this class is for you.
Of
course, if you have any questions about whether or not this class is
for you, please contact me.
