Week 5 Blog Post- Software Skills

I am glad that the time was taken to be taught how to use the software and also to demonstrate the skills which we acquired. All of the software skills are very beneficial to me and I now have the confidence as well to make an effective and an engaging worksheet, test, hand-out and so on. The software skills that I feel will be most beneficial to me are inspiration and word. I like that I can make charts on inspiration which I can make cause and effect charts, different branches of government and other social studies topics. Of course this could always be hand drawn but with inspiration it is neat and organized and help the students that are visual. Word I can make quick quizzes that are neat and organized and simple to asses my students. These software skills will aid me as a teacher they will allow me to be creative and produce effective items, whether it is a test, flyer or hand-out. I now have the tools to produce something of quality.
