New Topics

The group was assigned different topics to cover in the manual. Using information from the reference books we formulated topics that we should cover and each member was given a topics. All the member will write instructions on the given topics.
This is what we'll be doing in the coming weeks.

Continuation (Week 3)

The group is still working on the assigned tasks given to them last week. A Google Document was setup for the creation of the manual. We are trying to manage our time around the other assignments that we have to complete for other courses. So far it has proven difficult but we will make it work. We've stayed in the group for all other projects to make it easier for us manage them.

Another reference book

Microsoft Office 2010 All-In-One for Dummies was added to our list. This book will be used to help us format how our manual will look. The information in the book is very useful as well. This book is also authored by Peter Weverka.

This week was a continuation of last week's tasks and we'll be updating our personal blogs as well.

Assigned Tasks 2 (Week 2)

In the rest of the weeks now we'll be posting more information about how to do tasks in OneNote. Using the book Microsoft OneNote 2010 Plain and Simple by Peter Weverka as a guide. We'll also use other books for our references.

The tasks assigned for the group this week is preparing instructions for the project. This task will take approximately 2-3 weeks. Continuous blog posts here and on our personal blog surrounding this task is to be expected.

So far we've integrated OneNote into our class experience, using it at every oppourtunity to take notes and share with each other what we've learnt. At first OneNote seemed simple and easy to use but as time went by using the program we've devloped an appreciatication for it's complexity. It is truely worthy to be a vital part of the Microsoft Office Suite.
