PowerPoint

The articles were very good and helpful some of the guidelines I feel people in the class should follow are: limiting the use of bullets, use high quality graphics instead of clip art, never read your slides out loud use them as more of a guideline than textbook, throw in an animation or video to spice up the presentation a little bit, and always keep it simple more is less. The thing that bothers me the most is when people just read their presentation right of the projector instead of telling new and more informative information.

Excel

I took computer skills in high school and had already learned the majority of the information taught. The nicest thing about taking it again was learning how to use it with the new vista platform for windows. Also relearning the if function helped a lot i had completely forgotten how to do it now i can use it with ease.

CLT

I personally don't see myself using this room that often. Maybe for this class when we have to create the post cards or something like that. As of right now not very many of my classes require me to be digitally creative. However it was cool to learn that we have all that equipment at our disposal in case we ever needed to use it.
