Process
First thing to do
- read introduction on what will be covered
- consult the grade 10 CAT textbook
- look at the active done in class
- click on the link and watch the video
Secondly
- Revise the content
- Ask question on the things that you are unclear about.
Thirdly
- complete the task
- make sure that you save your work
- save your work as follows Surname_Initial_Year
Fourthly
- Submit your Ms Word File ,Saved as your surname and initial .Under Content on Computer application link .
- You will recieve marks immediately after submission
Lastly
- Feedback and explanation of the task will be uploaded after everyone has been marked.
Evaluation
- Most importantly in the evaluation we will look at did the learner apply the styles required in each question .
- Did the learner follow the instruction and apply all changes as per question .
- Look at the marks also when grading the learner so as to grade the learner .
- Grade the learner as per memo and with computers it is so easy to grade the learner as after submission the learner will be marked automatically and for some questions immediately .
- Marks will be graded as per mark allocation per question
Conclusion
- Paragraph styles are the most important styles. They're called paragraph styles because when you use a paragraph style, Word can format a whole paragraph of text at a time.
- Character styles are used to format a few characters within a paragraph .
also with other content it is very important to know where to go on the taskbar when you are required to do a certain change in a document such as changing height and shading.
all these are things that you need to take note of when dealing with this chapter for term two .We covered all that is required for a grade 10 learner in this term.

this topic was chosen for the grade 10 class because Microsoft word is the first topic to be covered in grade 10 and it is very important for learners to start in word so as to get the basics of how to use Computers and how to do required things using a computer .
In our days using and access to a computer is very significant because we need to understand how to use and operate computers. We encourage learners to be computer literate by focusing and be curious about knowing how to use computers and encourage their peers to be computer literate and be digitally alert.
