Answer:
ya sure here is your answer
Explanation:
1. Creating, Naming, and Saving a Document
These three basics are the trifecta of getting started with word processing. Make sure to teach students the difference between “Save” (which will save your document under the current name) and “Save As” (which allows you to rename a document).
2. Formatting (bold, italics, font sizes, aligning text)
The toolbar at the top of your page is your friend when it comes to all things formatting. Let students play around with changing font sizes and colors to learn, but then always set clear expectations about the required formatting for an assignment.
3. Creating lists (bullet vs. numbered)
With the click of a button from the toolbar, students can create numbered or bulleted lists. Teach students the different times when this is appropriate (say for an outline or brainstorming).
4. Line spacing
Also on their main toolbar student have the option of how they want to space their lines. Most academic papers use 1.5 or double spaced.
5. Creating columns
Creating columns is especially useful for writing articles, pamphlets, or other specialized pieces. From the “Formatting” drop-down menu students can choose two or three columns, or customize their own number.
6. Inserting a bookmark
Just as you use a bookmark to save your place in a book, you can use one in Word to save your place in a document. From the “Insert” menu, students can place and name a bookmark so they remember to come back to that part later.
7. Inserting an image
If students are writing articles or poetry, they may want to insert an image. Also accessed from the “Insert” menu, make sure students have the image they want saved on their computer so that they can upload it.
8. Hyperlinking
This is a great skill to know for informal papers or blog posts where students want to link their own work to where they accessed the information. Highlight the text you want to hyperlink, right click and choose “hyperlink” and then paste the URL of your destination.
9. Find & Replace
Realize you’ve spelled someone’s name wrong throughout your paper? From the “Edit” menu students can find all of the incorrect spellings and ask Word to automatically replace them with the correct spelling. Problem solved!
10. Grammar & Spell Check
Most up to date word processing programs will automatically check spelling and grammar for students by displaying this squiggly red and green lines. Teach students not to ignore those lines! If they can’t figure out the mistake on their own, right click to find the suggested correction.
11. Inserting a page break
Writing a play with multiple acts and want each one to start on a new page? Insert a page break from the “Insert” menu to ensure that each act will always start at the top of a new page.
12. Using word count
Minimum and maximum word requirements are a fact of life. From college to the workplace students will need to write within a word count range. Use the “Tools” menu to find out how to check your word total so far. This number is also displayed as a running total at the bottom of the screen in Microsoft Word.
13. Inserting Tables
Whether writing a biology lab report or a business proposal, you may want to insert a table in your writing. To do so click the “Table” button on the toolbar and select how many rows and columns you’re going to need.
14. Inserting Rows/Columns
Need more rows or columns than you initially anticipated? Just right click within your table and choose to add a row above or below or a column to the right or left. Repeat as needed!
15. Cell shading
Add visual appeal to your table by shading specific rows or columns to draw attention to headings. Highlight the cells you want to shade and from the “Table Design” menu choose shading and the color of your choice.
16. Changing column/row width
While a table will automatically generate with rows and columns of uniform size, there are plenty of instances when one needs to customize the layout. The easiest way to do so is by dragging the gridlines between rows and columns to suit your needs.
17. Text alignment in tables
When it comes to tables, attention to detail matters. Customize the alignment of text within a cell by right clicking in the cell (or highlighting multiple cells and right clicking) to choose how you would like your text to be displayed.
18. Changing text direction
Complicated tables or formats may require you to change the direction of your text to better fit the space or increase readability. Click within a designated cell and from the “Layout” tab click the text direction button to toggle between horizontal and vertical text.
