Today we had an opportunity to explore a super cool software tool, Inspiredata. After playing with the software and exploring its possibilities, we worked cooperatively to generate some questions, observations, and reflections. This is a program I will definitely promote at my school.

Word Helpful Hints

September 16, 2007
In ECOMP 5106, we learned countless "Helpful Hints" for using Microsfot Word. The ones I found most helpful for this class were learning how to create a Table of Contents, and the use of section breaks and page breaks within a document. These are tools in Word which I will definitely use in the future and that I know I will be able to pass along to my students with confidence.
