This text builds on advanced word processing skills and reinforces communication, keyboarding, and Internet skills while teaching all of the tools of Microsoft Office XP: PowerPoint, Excel, Access, FrontPage, Outlook and Speech Recognition. The first project (Module 4) follows the PowerPoint, Excel, and Access modules and integrates these modules with Word. The second project (Module 8) is positioned after the Outlook, Front Page, and Speech Recognition applications are taught and integrates all six applications with Word. These projects also integrate communication skills, information management skills, decision-making skills, and the ability to work without direction.
