Word 97

This basic course teaches learners how to work with Microsoft Word, the word processing program, through its Glencoe Professional Approach series. Practice exercises build confidence step by step, and some are designed to stretch more experienced students.

The guide relies on screen images and labeled toolbar icons to show each procedure, so students can follow along at a computer. Many of the tasks mirror the documents and routines people handle in offices, giving the hands-on work a workplace focus.

Instructors have a full set of supporting materials that can be adjusted to suit their teaching approach, the lab equipment available, the goals of the course, and how their students learn best.
