Knowledge of On-line Documentation

My primary experience comes from teaching Microsoft Office including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access, and Outlook. I have some, but limited, experience with FrontPage and PageMaker. In addition, I have dabbled in a variety of other software, but have no long-term practical experience using any of them. I have also worked with Microsoft NT networks running Windows 2000. Often, I have had to use the on-line help systems or had to search the Internet for assistance with technical issues since I have no formal training in end-user or networking applications. My academic career has been spotted with courses in multimedia including Visual Communications in Business and Industry and Multimedia Production. I have also some experience with Visual Basic. Programming languages come fairly easy to me and I actually started in programming at Ohio State in 1981 learning Fortran and Cobol among others. Over the years, I have been a witness to the much of the computer revolution. I am a blogging newbie and am looking forward to the experience! In addition, while I have a broad background with much of computer technology, I am not really a specialist in anything but Microsoft Office programs. I also have very limited Mac experience, but would like to gain some. I am looking forward to an interesting semester.
