Bijou Students!   To be Successful & earn a Credit in this course, you should...

Start Here...

D11 is eventually upgrading to Office 2007, so this course will have some examples designed around that suite of programs. However, since many people will have older versions to use at home or elsewhere the thrust of this course will be to perform tasks or create projects, (usually in cooperation with another teacher & course, and the computer credit will be earned by using the applications available to you effectively) AND to be able to switch from one version to another and use the HELP resources on the computer and the web to solve your own problems in order to be successful.

Some work will have to be done on your part to learn how to use specific aspects of the applications...

The options for technical help online include:

  1. Go to the Microsoft Tutorials and follow their lessons on the new 2007 Office suite of applications.

  2. Go to an alternate site for instruction on the new 2007 Office suite of applications.

  3. Go to sites that can give you help with older versions, such as 2003, 2002 or 2000.

  4. Use the Bijou 2003 tutorials and adapt to 2007 as needed.
