Download Creating a Microsoft Word Document: A Lab Assignment and more Quizzes Computer Science in PDF only on Docsity! Activity One October 3rd/4th 10 points Due: 11:59 p.m. Sunday, October 9th for MW sections 11:59 p.m. Monday, October 10th for TR sections Note: You will have a quiz on Excel on October 12th/13th The intent of this activity is to learn some features of Microsoft Word. You will create a text document and will save it in your disk or your ONID memory space. After completing this activity, submit a copy of your finished document for grading. You can submit your work as many times as you need until the due date. Creating a Word Document Find and open “Microsoft Word” application. As the application launches it will start a new document. First, save the new file on Home of the ONID memory. o Click on File in the menu bar and choose (click on) Save As o Locate ‘My Computer.’ You will then see a list of all drives available to you, including one with your login name. o This is your ONID workspace, which consists of 30 Megabytes of memory on a remote server. You can save and load files from this workspace regardless of what computer on campus you’re working from. For file name, type “Act1_lab section number_last name.doc” and click OK (e.g. if I was in recitation section 9, my file would read “Act1_009_OHara.doc”). Save your file often as you progress. After the first ‘save as’ you can use ‘save’ instead, and the application will save your file with the same name in the same location. The shortcut for saving on a PC is “Ctrl” key and “s.” At this point you need some text and information. Pick a topic that interests you, or maybe something you desire to know more about. I suggest that you search the World Wide Web for text to copy and paste, making note of each URL as your source (you will need for number 3 below). Your document should not exceed three pages. 1) Include a title in your document, appropriate to the subject, centered at the top of page 1 in 16-point Arial font. 2) Add a header to the document with your name and section number in the upper right corner, and footer with the page number in the center and date on the right. 3) Add at least two footnotes to your document. 4) Create a table of contents containing at least two levels of headings. To add entries to the table of contents, text in your document must be marked as a specific level of ‘Heading’ (Level 1, Level 2, and so on. The higher the number, the more indented the text will be in the table of contents.)
