Excel

          I do not know anyhting about Excel. I will try my best on learning about it. I took a class last year and we used it but i don't remember anything that we did with excel. I feel really comfortable when i take the test for Excell why?  because its not really that hard on dealing with it. I hope there is a program like the www.sam2007.course.com because it really helped alot on doing the word test and also i will be looking for those projects that we had on word on how to do a process.  I feel that i can be prepared once we get the test and i feel that i will learn all the stuff that i need to know about microsoft excel. I feel excited on getting a new certificate from microsoft added to the one i already have. I hope that next semester its fun and not just boring things to do like have hard stuff to do and fun at the same time so like we don't get bored and learn while we have fun.

Experience on Microsoft Test

             This has been a great experience that we had. This was a good experience on how stuff works when you want to get certified on a program. The testing part was a hard thing to do and even though i barely passed it counts because its the same certificate that a person with a perfect score gets. At the begining of the semester it was a new thing that i learned and just because of taking this class i didn't have to pay for a certificate that is kind of expensive. The work that really helped was the www.sam2007.course.com because it was kind of like the test just a little harder. Some other things that also helped on taking this test was the work that we did in partners in creating a template and making the original and the one that has all the stuff alredy how its going to look after adding the stuff to the template i thought that projects like that will be also helpfull for the next semester for when we take the Excel and Microsoft Powerpoint Test. Another things is that it is all worth it after you get your certification because when i go apply for a job on a big company its going to look good in my Resume. One of the things that impacted me on this experience was that the first week was boring with no dis respect and i did not even know we were going to take a test from microsoft and get certified and some stuff i already knew and other stuff i learned how to do. The tasks that really helped me on learning on dealing with microsoft were the tasks that we had to do on microsoft and name the process that it was required. I thought the testing part was kind of cool and an experience thing that i learned. The first time and last time i will take that test i was really nervous because one person had failed the day before and when i took it after entering an answer and when i was on the next question i had entered the wrong answer and i knew it was wrong and for the last five that i skipped i really maked sure that it was right and went through all the tabs to see where the right process was and entered the right one and when i really finished i was like yes finally im done and i didnt even look at the score i just looked for the word pass and i was relieved that i did not have to take it a second time. For the last thing i wanna say is that when i take this exam again for any other programs i will try not to get nervous and look through the document and i want to thank mrs. Goeldner for teaching us and getting a good percent of people passing and got me to pass.

Practice Test Experience

In my experience this work really was a helpfull experience because i kind of struggled doing my project but when i go tto do somebody elses it was pretty easy because i had already done it on mine. Works like this can be very helpful when we take the test because we learn things. I will like to do something like this again and will like to learn more stuff that can be helpful when we take the test for microsoft word.

word environment

Whats in the microsoft button. In the microsoft button contains different names of options like the file menu or like if you want to print something you go to the microsoft button it is pretty much to make things easy in the process of working with the word program it is also to find files that you have saved before. So the microsoft button its pretty much like the main button to go to open documents and print and make things easier for the user of the microsoft program.


 What are the tab names. Well theres like seven and the names are the references,mailing, page layout, insert, home, view, and the review tab. I got this information from the book from yesterday. So what is that there is seven tabs in the microsoft program.


What is page  layout. There is groups for the page layout and there are options to customize the way a page looks. So what it think page lay out is a process that helps to customize a page or a paper that somebody is writtng. It is  to customize like the font, theme style of letter.

Microsoft 2007

A good question would be what has microsoft changed in microsoft 2007. There has been somethings that have changed in the basic programs of microsoft. The programs have been improving as the years have gone by but i think what microsoft is doing is that they are trying to make things easier to do on their programs for example file button is not even on the word program or in all of them and they are trying to make the programs look better in a way that it does not bore people. So what  i think is that microsoft is doing a good job on improving the programs.

Things that you get back

Whats in it for me by taking this test and being a microsoft specialist. I think that you get jobs more easy in a busines place because they might use microsoft programs. I think that if you go to a job and fill out a resume you look more professional by writting that you are a MCAS rather than a guy that only has a high school diploma. So what i think about the certification program is that is good for us and the school is apying for it so its god.

Benefits

Benefits of taking MCAS. Well their are benefits of taking this test and getting certified for example if i would like to work in an office that uses microsoft programs ican have a chance of getting a job easier by being certified. I can tell that this benefits can be very well used in resumes. So what i think about the benefits is that you can get a job easier.

MCAS

What is MCAS. Well MCAS is a test that you take to become a microsoft aplication specialist for example word, excel, powerpoint and so on you get certified on how well you know how to use the programs. I got this information from a video that we wathed during class. So basically what this program doesis to get you certified on microsoft programs.
