Software Lab Assignments
For each of the major software applications we will be covering, as well as the programming

to the functions of that application. The assignments will be:
MS Word: Document Construction, you will create a template document featuring page layout
specifications, media add in functions, command of style, design, and color schematics. A list
of requirements for the document will be provided along with a rubric for grading criteria.
Learners will submit the document to the course shell as an attachment for review by the

Weekly Activities
For each weekly unit there will be tasks and activities that must be completed to finish the
unit. This can include practice quizzes, exercises, and other small assignments. These tasks
are not graded and are for your benefit. For example, questions found on practice quizzes will
bear a REMARKABLE SIMILARITY to questions found on the exams. Your grade will be based
on completion of the activities.
Discussions
Discussions will be required for certain units in order to complete them, other units will have
discussions available for acquiring assistance from others in order to complete assignments.
Exams
There will be a midterm and final exam in the course. Each will cover half the course materials.
