Word Lesson 1: Microsoft Word 2013 Jumpstart
In this lesson, you’ll learn about Microsoft Word 2013 and will put into practice everything you learn. If you prefer a slower-paced introduction to the features of the application, begin with Lesson 2, “Getting Started with Word 2013,” and then return to this lesson when you are more comfortable with the new features.
What you’ll learn in this lesson:
- • Opening and editing a Word 2013 document
- • Working with themes and styles
- • Embedding local images and Web movies
- • Exploring version control and collaboration tools
Starting up
In this lesson, you’ll work with the ready-made templates available for Word 2013 from Microsoft, but for future lessons you’ll work with documents created specifically for the course. Make sure that you have loaded the OfficeLessons folder onto your hard drive from www.digitalclassroombooks.com/Office2013. For more information, see “Loading lesson files” in the Starting up section of this book. Keep in mind that Microsoft might alter the default online Word 2013 templates; if you find that to be the case, choose a comparable Word document to follow along.
The project
You’ll begin this lesson by opening a document that shows several key features of Word 2013; you will then edit the document’s content and layout. Note that this lesson requires you to be connected to the Internet.
