During Phase 1, we started Chapter 4, which is all about Microsoft Word. Specifically 4.4 is about how to format paragraphs. Formatting paragraphs properly is such an important skills to have. At work, we use a lot of template forms for various things, and sometimes the formatting can get a bit wonky. Properly learning the different ways to format paragraphs with indentations and tabs, along with how to actually read and understand the formatting symbols, has made a world of difference! It has greatly improved the efficiency in which I can fix the formatting issues that I run into with those wonky work templates.
Looking ahead, we have our MO-110 Word Certification Exam in 2 weeks. To be fully prepared, I am going to make sure that I am fully complete with Chapter 4, again, which is all about Word. I am also going to revisit any topics that I may have had difficulty with the first time around to make sure that I have mastered it. You can definitely bet that if I need additional help, I will reach out to Professor Wu who is always willing to help to make sure we are set up for success.
I'm looking forward to learning the proper ways to utilize Microsoft applications and making my life easier by implementing those best practices. I am nervous for the MO- 110 Word Certification Exam since I haven't started on the live projects just yet, but I am confident that I will be ready to crush it! I am ready to be a certified proficient Word user. :)
Balancing four classes, working full-time, and spending with my family is no easy task. Glad you found your footing ^_^
ReplyDeleteEven more glad to hear you are applying what you learned from 4.4.5 Paragraph Formatting Facts and the related hands-on labs to your workplace!
Excellent job on crushing the MO-110 Word certification exam, Katelyn. I look forward to seeing more of your participation in the bonus quizzes :-)
Hey Katelyn,
ReplyDeleteLoved reading your reflection! It’s so impressive how you’ve been juggling four classes, working full-time, and still managing to stay ahead in LabSims, seriously, go you! That’s not easy, and it says a lot about your hard work!
I totally agree about paragraph formatting. I used to just mess around with the spacing and hope it looked okay, but now I actually understand what I’m doing. It’s awesome that it’s helping you with work templates too! ^-^
It certainly is a task to stay caught up with four classes, let alone be ahead on class work. All the practice we have gotten with word is helping in other classes and work as well. Stay on course and you will nail this next exam!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you handled Phase 1 really well, especially with balancing everything! It's awesome that you got ahead on your LabSims assignments—getting ahead is definitely something I aim for too, but I tend to fall a bit behind on it. I agree that mastering paragraph formatting is such a game-changer, especially with those work templates! You’ve got a solid plan for the MO-110 prep—I'm sure you'll crush it when the time comes. Best of luck, and I’m sure you’ll be a certified pro in no time!
ReplyDeleteIt is not easy juggling work and college full-time, not falling behind, and still managing to find time to spend with your family. Practice sure helps in this course, especially when taking those MOS Certification Exams. Going over the practice sims has helped me as well.
ReplyDeleteHi Katelyn! I can’t imagine being a full-time student while working a full-time job so kudos to you! Keep up the great work as we approach the last few weeks of the semester. I agree that I should be participating more in the bonus quizzes too... I kind of fell off after the fourth one. Your confidence in earning your certificate inspires me to be prepared and ready for our next certification exam.
ReplyDeleteFinding your footing with time management and delegation is not an easy feat, but I think if you are able to figure out, you are golden! Formatting paragraphs is kinda wonky, cause sometimes professors have different standards, but I'm glad this chapter made it a bit more simpler. Keep on crushing it!
ReplyDeleteHello Katelyn!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on making it past phase 1 because I know it wasn’t as easy as we all probably thought. That’s a good habit to check the assignments in Canvas daily.
If you were positive about passing the MO-110 before taking it. I bet you passed the exam with flying colors.
Wow, juggling work, school, and family is no joke props to you for staying on top of everything! Getting ahead on LabSim is a win, and your plan for the MO-110 exam sounds solid. You’ve got the right mindset, and I’m sure you’ll do great.
ReplyDeleteHey Katelyn, I enjoyed reading your post. You have definitely been busy. I am only taking two classes and I am struggling, so props to you and keep at it. I love your mentality and confidence in going into the test.
ReplyDeleteHi Katelyn,
ReplyDeleteAwesome job pushing through Phase 1! Balancing work, school, and family is no small feat--huge props to you for staying on top of everything. You’ve got a solid plan moving forward, and with that attitude, you’re definitely going to succeed. Keep it up!
Hi Katelyn, Its inspiring that you are in school full time, as well as working full time, and also family. Although I have yet to take any bonus quizes, I definitely need to add that to my do list.
ReplyDeleteHi, I also like butterflies. They always fly around the front yard because we have flowers. Truly amazing creatures.
ReplyDeleteHi Katelyn! I'm really happy for you that you were able to find that balance for yourself, it isn't easy but not impossible. You should be proud of yourself!
ReplyDeleteGoal is always to learn from mistakes and do better next time, something I will do for my next semester. Formatting paragraphs is so satisfying because of how organize it can be, I always wanted to know how to do it and now we do. The digital world is only expanding so this class was extremely useful and will be beneficial for us.
