Week Two

 

Week two covered the basics of word processing. It also introduced our week 8 comprehensive assignment. The Word Processing tutorials were a great refresher tool. I have not used a lot of the word functions in quite a while, so this week’s lesson really helped me brush up on my skills. Adding a header and footer was a function I have not had to use in a long time, so learning how to perform this function was essential for writing college lever papers.

In week two I also learned what a blog is and how to create one. I’ve never created a blog, so this was all new information to me. After reviewing the resources provided by my instructor, (the YouTube tutorials being exceptionally helpful, as I’m a visual learner), I decided to review some blogs online. Reading the different blogs online helped me get a better understanding of what a blog is all about. Initially I was slightly intimidated at the ideal of creating a blog but after learning what it is and how to create one I discovered it’s fairly easy if you can follow simple directions. I have listed steps to below for creating a blog on blogger.com
