We were given approximately a week to complete each one, and they involved more depth than the quizzes or exams due to the length of time we were given to complete them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our first assignment was completed on Microsoft Word, and we were expected to use formatting functions to complete the required steps. Our topics were to be copied from another source (with credit) and the formatting was to be completed on the plain text. My previous knowledge in Word served me well on this assignment, as many of the functions we covered in class I had discovered on my own in the past while working on formatting other projects; this made the assignment the quickest and easiest in the course for me. My final report can be seen <a href=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/emmagiesbrecht\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1380\/2019\/01\/Word-Assignment-PDF.pdf\">here<\/a>, and my topic came from <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Stock_exchange\">this<\/a> Wikipedia article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our next assignment was in Excel, which I had used previously during my internship but had limited knowledge of. We learned several formulas and how to use them together to create clean-looking documents, and I believe this unit, which was the majority of the class, was the most useful for me. I was quick to understand the uses of the functions we dealt with and easily used them to compute the numbers for me. The assignment can be seen <a href=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/emmagiesbrecht\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1380\/2019\/01\/Excel-Assignment-Numbers-PDF.pdf\">here<\/a> as the final project and <a href=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/emmagiesbrecht\/excel-assignment-formulas-pdf\/\">here<\/a> with the functions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The last assignment was in PowerPoint, which took me the longest to complete; finding the information to put on the slides and the pictures to include took me at least three hours alone, and then I was left to compress everything into bullet points and add details. I have never been a fan of PowerPoint (visuals are not my idea of fun), but I was pleased with the final turnout of the assignment, which can be seen <a href=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/emmagiesbrecht\/powerpoint-assignment-pdf\/\">here<\/a>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In my Business Computing class, we completed several projects to showcase our expertise on various Microsoft applications.
