My only real prior experience using technology such as Word, excel and Powerpoint would be in high school. I was involved in the magnet program at Palm Beach Gardens High School for all four years and we had a couple of Excel assignments and many Word and Power point assignments. i would have to say that the powerpoint assignments were definitely my favorite because I wa able to show my own creativity and using Word throughout high school has helped me at many other times in my life.
As I said earlier I feel pretty confident in both Word and Powerpint but I know that Excel is for sure a downfall for me in the computer world. I can sometimes tend to be unorganized and I can get confused easily so I hope to learn more about Excel so that I am able to apply it to other aspects of my life. I also feel like I only know the basics of Powerpoint and I would really love to get to know all of the other interesting things that it has to offer.
I have always been a hands-on, visual learner and I can definitely say that today showed me how true that really is. I find things to be a lot easier when it is righ tin front of me and I am able to work my way through it. When I am just being told to do something it is hard for me to grasp the concept so I hope to continue in this class by continuing to use my visual skills.
