Book Description

0538727578 978-0538727570 January 5, 2004 1
Keyboarding & Formatting Essentials, Lessons 1-60, will teach new key learning and basic document formatting using the functions of Word 2002 or 2003! Lessons 1-25 are focused on teaching the alphabetic keyboard, top row numbers and symbols of the keyboard, and the numeric keyboard with the use of Keyboarding Pro Version 4.0. The remaining lessons will focus on traditional skillbuilding, language arts, and document formatting. Word processing skills are isolated and introduced prior to document formatting lessons and proofreading skills are reinforced within the documents. The document formatting lessons are devoted solely to documents and teach no additional word processing functions so users can focus on proper fromatting techniques.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"We have always used South-Western keyboarding books. To us at Columbus State Community College, they are the "signature" keyboarding books. We have always liked the layout and color schemes presented."

"I do like the way the books are organized. It is easy to find information by using the index and/or table of contents. I love the reference pages in the back of the book. I teach my students to always look things up. By having the info in one place, makes it easy for my students. I like the exercises that force a student to look up formatting. So many times the students just want to type right from the book without making decisions."

"The flow seems to be sequential and the directions were good. The software is so different, but I was able to locate what I needed to do the work. It is going to be a huge learning curve for faculty and students who are accustomed to using a previous version of Word. I think the amount of functions covered per lesson were appropriate--not too many or too few." --This text refers to an alternate Spiral-bound edition.

1.0 out of 5 stars Missing maerial from Keyboarding & Formatting, September 12, 2009
My classes started last week and I found out I needed this book. When I received the book, I had no Student User Guide and I could not use the product because the CD accompanying the material did not have the Keyboarding & Formatting software setup on it. All it has is the lessons to be run on keyboarding pro. The description of this item is misleading. It indicates that you will recieve everything you need to install and run keyboading & formatting. What do I do now?
