37 Demo
In this assignment we were required to create a memo to the vice president of marketing putting the demographics of their company into tables. To complete this assignment I was required to use various tools in microsoft word. In this assignment the main tool needed was the ability to succesfully format tables. By completing this assignment I accomplished a piece of work that culminates all of the table skills we have learned in previous assignments. In this assignment something I did well was the shading and border of the table. Something I would change to improve my assignment is column and row width and hieghts.
53Voyager Newsletter
In this assignment we were required to create a 3 column newsletter in publisher using a template already in publisher. This newsletter was required to have all the information provided and have three columns, while keeping a balance of white space, text, and pictures. For this assignment we learned new technology tools. It was the first assignment in which we used Publisher. In publisher we were required to download a template and then alter the template to fit the information we needed. From doing this assignment I learned the basics of Publisher. This was the first time I used this program so I learned things such as how to crop pictures, and use drop caps. In this assignment I feel that I formatted my newsletter well. There is a nice balance between white space, text, and pictures, as well as a nice balance of colors. If I was to do this assignment again I would format my textboxes differently.
Career Research Project
During this assignment we first had to find various careers that coincided with our interests. These interests were found using an interest survey. Once we chose the various careers we then researched an array of different questions pertaining to the careers. They ranged from average salary to what universities had this major. Once we compiled all of our data we then placed it into a table, making the data
easier to read. In order to
complete this assignment we used various technology tools. We used Microsoft Word to compile our information and we used the various table tools in order to organize the material. Also, we used various internet resources, one of those being the Occupation Outlook Handbook. This assignment taught me many things. One thing was the range of jobs that are available and all the different aspects of a job you should take into consideration before choosing one. Also, it taught me how to use various online databases and how to compare and compile data. In this assignment I feel that I did a few things well. I feel that I was thorough with my research and I also formatted the table well. If I redid this assignment I would possibly change a few of my careers that way I was more interested in the project. Also, I would try to find a way to make my research more concise when putting it into the table.

Activity 12 Teen USA Payroll
In this assignment we were required to make a spreadsheet showing
the pay for various teen employees.
We had to calculate what their gross and net pay would be, after taking
out taxes, etc. In order to complete this assignment we had to use Microsoft Excel. We had to use various skills we had learned in the past couple of assignments. By accomplishing
this activity I was able to learn new ways of typing complicated functions into
Excel. These functions had multiplication and addition involved, forcing us to use parentheses. In this assignment I feel that I did well with using the various formulas
and the fill down tool to avoid retyping the equations. If I was to do this assignment again I would format it more creatively.
