~chapter 3 talks about the different kinds of application software, such as microsoft word, ad how each has its own specific purposes and its own special features. It talks about word, mostly, and how it has almost an endless supply of things you can add to you document to make it creative and fun along with informative. It also explains the advantages of these software programs to help people with special needs, like those who are dissabled.

~Since the last posting, I've learned some pretty nifty stuff on word. The training taught me how to make cute little bullets and how to print labels(should I need to). I think these will be helpful in my career because teachers use word very often so they should know all the ins and out of it.And teachers (especially elementry) use labels and pictures to help their students be focused and organized.

~the training and practice test on word took me 3 and 2 hours, respectively...I thought that was a bit much....why are they so long? It's nearly impossible to sit still and stare at a computer screen through 120 tasks on word......just though I'd say that. I feel better now.
I find it nifty that the book has the chapters color-coded, very good idea...
