Week 6 Assignment

I found the activities this week to be challenging yet not so hard that I couldn't figure them out. The brochure was very different, but Publisher made it so easy to figure out. As far as last weeks assignment, I have used Excel a lot at work and there really wasn't anything new that I learned. I'm sure there is more to the program than we did last week so hopefully I can learn something new from Excel in the future. At this point I don't think there is anything I need to review, but I don't want to be arrogant and assume that I know everything.

I felt that Desktop Publishing is great. My husband is a graphic designer and can do brochures with his eyes closed and he doesn't need Publisher to help him, but for people like me who aren't creative this program is so helpful. I would like to work with this program again in the future and see if I can create a brochure that is purely my own idea. I think if I had to create something for my classroom, I would create a brochure about the author's and their books we will be reading. They might actually read the information if it is present creatively.
