ECDL Advanced Presentation: Module 6: Presentation
The European Computer Driving Licence (ECDL) is an internationally recognised qualification for IT skills. The Advanced Level ECDL courses build on hte ECDL core courses, allowing students to develop and demonstrate a higher leve of expertise in the areas of word processing, spreadsheets, databases and presentation software.
This book is
suitable for anyone studying for ECDL Advanced Module 6: Presentation, whether at school or college, in an adult class, or at home. The approach is very much one of 'learning by doing'. Studnets are guided step by step through creating real documents with numerous screenshots showing exactly what should appear on the screen at each stage. The book uses Microsoft Office 2003, but earlier versions can also be used with care.
This book is organised around real-world examples, with topics introduced naturally as they occur instead of in strict syllabus order. This arrangement has made it possible to develop more meaningful and interesting excercises than would have been possible using the tradtionla 'box-ticking' structure.
Features include
* tips and notes to help you get the best out of the software
* 'Test Yourself' section at the end of each chapter
* supporting materials at: http://www.paynes-gallway.co.uk
