This course is hands on, practical and designed to help you transform any plain text into a clear, well designed report that stands out. 2. Introduction and Setup: Microsoft Word is a part of Office 365 and is one of the most popular Word processing applications out there. Once you open up Microsoft Word, this is what you have as you can see. And if you want to go ahead and create a new document from scratch, you can simply go ahead and choose blank document trap here. And then this is what you have. So now what we'll do is we'll go ahead and learn how to create a full document step by step. So once you open up Word document, this is what you have, as you can see. We actually chose blank document trot here. But if I were to go around over here, you can see that I can go ahead and access out one of these templates as well. You can even go to the new tab and access out different templates if you want to use templates for your project. But I'm going to go ahead and use this itself. So now over here, as there is blank document, what I'm going to do is add in the text. You can go ahead and start by typing out the text, but in my case, I'm going to go ahead and then keep a text that I already have for the document that we're going to format. So over here in my notepad here, I already have this particular text. So I'm going to press Control A to select it all press Control C to copy, and then I'm going to go ahead and press Control V to paste out the text that I have. So this text is around, let's say, for example, three, four pages, as you can see rot here. So total, there's three pages of text, as you can see rot here, which is unformatted and plain. So even the capital letter is not set as you can see rot the text sizes are all same. So we're going to go ahead and make this document look beautiful, right here. So now what I want to do first is as I type in the text, and before I want to format it, I want to make sure that it is saved so that I don't lose my work. So to do that, you need to go around over here, onto the file menu and then go around over here onto save here. So let's just go around over here onto save and then I'm going to go ahead and browse to select the place where I want to save this project. So as I click on that, you can see that a dialog box opens up. So in my case, I'm simply going to go ahead and then save it out onto my dektop. You can go ahead and save it to different locations as you want, as well. But for demo reasons, I'm going to go ahead and save it to my Dk stop. So here, what I'm going to do is name it out as Document Project R. Here, it's just like this, and then I'm going to go ahead and save it. Usually, it's a good idea to save it in D drive or even Documents folder or somewhere within the C vibe so that your dektop isn't crowded. But for sample, we're going to save it to Dektop anyways. So here you can go ahead and give a file name. So right now it's benefits of learning online. And I'm going to go ahead and say formatting document exercise. So you can name it as what you want. And you can see that by default, the file extension for Microsoft Word is Doc X. You can go ahead and choose other formats as you want, as well, but we want to edit out our document. We're saving it so that we can keep on editing it. So, we are going to go ahead and choose Docx and click on Save Ra here. Once you do that, this is saved, and it's saved to PC, as you can see here. And then what you have is you have this document. You can also turn on autosave. So if you're signed in onto your OneDrive account, you can choose autosave. And whenever you make any changes, it will be synced out with your OneDrive account as well. But in our case, we're simply going to go ahead and save it offline and continue working with it. So as we progress along the course, now we're going to work around with basic text formatting so that our text works well, and then slowly, we'll start adding in colors and um formatting as we need to make the document look wonderful. 3. Basic Text Formatting: So now that we have our text ready, let's go ahead and then start editing our document to make it more, let's say, appealing. So for that, you need to understand the Microsoft Word interface first. And on the top, you see that there's the ribbons here, which has different tools. So for the formatting section, we're going to go ahead on to home where you see the font section right here where formatting can happen. Apart from that, on the top, you get the quick access tool bar where you can access out quick tools, as you can see here. And then apart from that, you can also go to the view section where you can go ahead and then view the document in different ways. You can go ahead and then see 100%. You can go ahead and Zoom in and Doom out by using the slider right here. You can also see multiple pages if you want right here just like this and so forth, or go to one page, side to side, and so forth, as you can see, right here. You can also hold Control on your keyboard and use the Scroll mouse button to go ahead and scroll in different section of the document as well. So that is what you have here, and then now it's time to format out the text. So let's just go ahead and start by changing out the font. So I'm going to press Control A to select out all of the font, and in home, you can see that by default is selected as calipry. But I want to go ahead and select out another font, which is a bit more appealing. Let's say, for example, you got ptos as you can see, you got PTOs Black and so forth. So there's many different sort of fonts, even interesting ones as you can see a here. So let's just go ahead and utilize, let's say, for example, agency Ra here. Just like this. Or, let me just go ahead right here and just use laptops right here, which is a clean font. So apart from that, I'm going to go ahead and change the titles right here. So the titles right here, as you can see, is, um, it is not set. This is set to a regular text, but I can go around over here and set this out as a heading. For this one, let's just go ahead and set it out as heading two. But let me just go around over here and set this out as the title, and then this one as heading here. Similarly, you can see that this is the introduction, and for the flexibility, I'm going to set it out as heading as well and go ahead and click on heading to set everything out as heading here. So there's personalized learning. There's heading. I'm going to go around over here, set it out as heading, heading t here. You can see that we have our text rot here taking shape now. So let's just go around set it out to heading and then set it out over here onto heading and so forth. Let's just go to challenges and solutions and heading. Conclusion, let's go to heading here. So now that is what I have, and let me just press Control S to save it out as well as IN. So apart from that, now what I need to do is change out, let's say, for example, the font of the heading here. For the title, let's go ahead and change it out into At LM display here. Let me just go to the title, right click and then update title to Matt selection so that it follows the title, as you can see here. Similarly, for the introduction, I'm going to go around over here. And then let's say, for example, use something else like a Hani rot here, and then I'm going to go ahead and update heading one to match. The I over here in the beginning is small, so I can go ahead and utilize the grammar to capitalize it out. Or what I can also do is I can go ahead and utilize the tool here to capitalize it out. So I can go around over here, change it to uppercase or capitalize each Word as well as you can see or sentence case rot here. So let's go to capitalize each Word because this is title, and that is what you have. Similarly, I'm going to go around over here. And then let's say, for example, update heading to match. Similarly, I want to go ahead and capitalize this as well, so I can go ahead and capitalize each Word. Let me just go ahead and hold control and scroll out, and I can go ahead and select out multiple text here, by holding control, right here, just like this. So I'm just going to go ahead and select out all R here, whatever I have by holding Control, just like this. And then what I can do is I can go ahead and then, let's say, for example, Uh, go ahead and choose capitalize each Word, and that is what you have. For this one, let's just go ahead and select it because IDs properly selected. So this is what you have, as you can see here till now, and our document is starting to take shape. R here just like this. Apart from that, let's say, I want to make the font much more larger. So it's 20, or maybe smaller, so I'm going to go ahead and use this, or I can choose a font size or even go ahead and type it in like 15 as well. Then you can go to heading, and since we apply heading to all, we can update heading to match, and all of the other headings simply goes ahead and follows as you can see there. So apart from that, you can see that the heading is colored blue. But I'm going to go ahead and change the text color for this one. So as I double click, you get the text color, and you can choose a color as you want, or even go to more colors and choose a custom color as you want, as well. Well, let me just go around over here and choose this text color rot here. Apart from that for the introduction rot here, I'm going to go ahead and choose uh, dark green rot here, and then go ahead right click update heading to match and everything follows out accordingly as well. Apart from that, you may want to go ahead and bold out certain fonts. In that case, you can go ahead and select out a particular range and bold it out as well if you want to. Let me just go ahead and choose capital rot here. So as I click on the beginning, you can see that all is set to a small rot here. So as I click on it, you can see that the grammar detector automatically knows that it's actually incorrect, so I can go ahead and make it capital at here. Furthermore, you can see that there's more texts that are not capitalized, so we're just going to go ahead and correct it out as we move along. So you can see that this is what you have. Let's just go around over here onto Wal conclusion, and this is what you have. Let me just press Control S to save it out just like that, as well. So similarly, now I can go ahead and select out all and change it out into, let's say, for example, sentence case, and it capitalizes out the beginning text as well. So let's just go ahead and repeat out the same for all. And again, I'm going to go ahead and zoom and then select out the paragraph here, select out this one, select out this one, select out this one right here, and select out this one, select out this one again, and then I'm going to go ahead and select out this one, this one. And finally, in the conclusion, I'm going to select it right here, and then I can go ahead here and then choose sentence case, and then that will be solved on everything. So you can see that our document is taking shape now and we have everything as we need just like this. You can even go ahead and select out a particular texts and underline them out and italicize them out by clicking on these buttons as well. But I'm not going to do that right now, just like this. So this is what you have, as you can see, and then that is how you can start formatting your text. And as we move along, we're going to go ahead and format out the paragraph, the line spacings, and even add in bullets as we need right here as necessary and continue formatting our document. 4. Formatting Paragraphs: Till now, we have this text formatted document here. But let's say what I want to do is I want to go ahead and make it even more beautiful. So there's too much space right here, so let's just go around over here under the space and press Backspace right here to remove off the excessive space that I have just like this. So let's just go around over here, Backspace. Let's just go around over here, Backspace and so forth, right here. So I can go ahead and then arrange out everything right here, just like this. So apart from that, I got these paragraphs right here, and I think they are clanged way inside. So in that case, I can go ahead and then utilize something called line space. So to do that, I can go around over here. And right now this is 1.15, but you can go ahead and select 1.5 rat here for a bit of line spacing. I can go ahead onto normal Right click and update normal to match rat here, just like this as well. But let me just go ahead and press Control Jerat here because that is not what I want. So I'm just going to go around over here and do the same for the rest as well. So let's just go around over here. Uh, update normal to match, but you can see that it bowls out everything right here just like this, which I don't want. So the title is there, so I'm just going to go around over here onto the title and update the title to match. And then I'm just going to go around right here. I'm just going to go ahead and remove out the bold right here, and then I'm going to update normal to match, and this is what I have. Apart from that, you can see that the edges are actually quite clunky. That is because this is left align. You can either center align it, you can right align it, as well, or you can justify, which actually goes ahead and smoothens out everything, as you can see right here. So I'm just going to go around over here, right click and update normal to match. And you can see that everything is quite quite arranged now, and it looks very, very, um, I'm very, very organized right there. Apart from that, you can see that it says practical tips for online learning, and there are some dass right here, but I want a proper bullet point right here, or numbers, let's say, for example, in that case, I can go ahead and select these out, and then I can add in a bullet point right here properly and even choose the type of bullet point right here, just like this. You can also choose numbered bullet points right here, just like this as well. So this is what you have. So now, apart from that, you can see that these are not sentence case. So let's just go around over here. And then go ahead and change to sentence cases so that the capitals here are in the beginning right here. So you can see that this is what you have right here, and then you can see that there's some spelling errors as well, but I'm just going to go ahead and correct this out. So these are some nouns here, as you can see, so I'm just going to go ahead and then change them out as capital as well, just like this. So that is what you have, as you can see right here, and you got this particular document here. You add it in the bullets as well. And apart from that, you can also go ahead and indent out paragraphs. So this is what I have. And similarly, for this as well, these are the points. I can go ahead and indent this out. I can press tab right here and indents it out inwards. You can indent it out outwards or in as you can see. You can also go around over here, indent it inwards right here, just like this as well, over here. For conclusion, maybe at the end, I'm going to go ahead and indent it, and then you can see that this is just pushed forward, just like this as you can see. And that is how you can go ahead and indent out paragraphs as necessary, as well. And this is how you can go ahead and format out paragraphs, and now you can see that it simply goes ahead and is much more better just like this. And as we move along, we're going to go ahead and structure and apply styles to our document, as well to make it even stand out more. 5. Structuring the Document: So over here, we have this particular document here, and let's make it even more interesting. So for benefits of online learning here for the text, let's add in a background. So to do that, I can simply select and over here on the home tab, I can go round over here onto the shading pot and choose a color that I want. So let's just go ahead and choose, let's say, for example, yellow here. Let's do the same for this particular headings as well. For this one, now I'm going to go to title and then update the title to match selection. Similarly, I'm going to go to instruction as well, and then what I'm going to do now is go around over here and select out a background color as I wish. Let's just select green for this one right here and then I'm going to update heading to match and you simply have the background color. Right here, just like this. For other headings, right here, just like that as well. So now, this is what you have, as you can see. So you got all of the headings right here colored out as well. And you can see that it's already starting to look wonderful right here, just like this. Apart from that, now, let's say, I want to add in a table of content as well. So I'm going to go to the beginning of the Title one and press Control Enter here so that this whole text moves on to the next phase. Now over here, what I can simply do is go around onto the references section. Then go to Table of Contents here, just like this and choose the table of content that I want. Like this one, let's say, for instance, then you can see the pase numbers over here and the Table of Contents as well. For this one, I'm just going to go ahead and set to heading one so that it matches it out as well, or you can set it out to title as well. You got Table of Contents right here, just like this. But apart from this, you can see that I don't actually have Base numbers right here. Where we can take care of that as well. So I'm just going to go round over here onto the insert section for that. And then I'm going to go to Footer. And then over here, what I'm going to do is add in this page number right here, so you can see that there's a page number and so forth. But I can go ahead onto page number itself as well. Onto bottom up the page, I'm going to select this one right here and press Got it, and then you can see that I got the page numbers right there. There's space number one, two, and so forth here. But let's say for the table of content, I don't want any pase number. So in that case, I can go around over here. And let's say, for example, remove format out piece number here. I'm going to start at zero at here just like this. So there's space number zero and one. And from the beginning right here, I'm just going to select different fps, and then what happens is that the piece number will be gone right there. And you can see that the first pie of Table of content does not have any piece number now, and then the others now has all the piece numbers just like this. So you can see that overall, the document design is starting to look great now. Let's just go around on to layout right here and over here or I can go to view and then go for side by side view right here so that I can see multiple pieces together just like this as well. And as we go along, we're going to now work around with Pais layout settings as well, such as Mrsins, paper sizes, sex in breaks, and so forth as needed. 6. Page Layout Settings: So now that we have our pays ready, let's just go ahead and further go ahead and edit it out. So we have certain margins that is set up, and we have a certain orientation of the pay and the paper size right here. So let's just go ahead and then go to the layout section for that. And here you can see that I can actually choose the paper size. Right now, it's in letter size, but what I'm going to do is select a four right here, just like this, and it changes out the size of the paper just like. Apart from that, you can also go around over here and then change around what you want, like orientation. You can go for the landscape method as well, just like this. But I just want portrait, so I'm just going to go ahead and keep that right there. Apart from that, now what you can do is go around over here onto margin. And right now you can see that this is a normal margin. But you can go for a narrower margin right here, just slight this so that more of the sections right here are cupboard as well. Apart from that, you can go for moderate as well or wide margins right here. You can go for mirrored as well, just like this as well, and default as well. You can also set custom margins. Let's say, for example, what I'm going to do now is add in a gutter of 1 " then add in 0.5 inch right here in the inside, outside, here's a slide this, and then go round over here and 0.5 on the top and bottom as well. Once I do that and press Okay, you can see that the table of contents is on the left inside. But for the main content, because of the gutter here, you can see that this is left. You can see that the left and right is actually managed out accordingly as well. That is how you can work around with the gutter as well, just like this. So this is what you have, as you can see, and it says mirror margins, but let me just go around onto normal so that you only have the left gutter here just like this as well. So apart from this, you can also go ahead and then do a section break to the document. So this is one page as you can see, so I'm just going to go round over here onto Table of content and press Control Enter. Once I do that, this is actually Phase one, as you can see here. But what I want is I want page one from this content only. So now what I can actually do is go to the Table of Contents section here, then go round over here onto, let's say, for example, onto onto the insert section rot here and you can see that pace break is an option as you can see here. You can also go around over here onto, let's say, for example, onto the design section rot here, the layout, and here you see the break as well. Let's go to the layout and then go to break and select Next space. And what happens is that the break is now applied onto the next space route here just like this. This is phase one, as you can see, this is phase two, and it's phase one from over here again. I want phase one from here. So you can see that this is Section one now, and this is Section two. So I'm simply going to go ahead and use, let's say, for example, not different first phase at here. So you can see that this is phase zero, here. So this is phase one and pay zero. It's restarted the number because what we did was we simply went ahead and then continued out with the same page. So let me just go ahead and remove link to previous rot here. Now I can go ahead and change out the page number. I'm just going to go to format page number and start at one and then it starts from one rot here. But over here, now what I can simply do is go ahead and turn, I mean, just remove out the footer rot here just like this. So you don't have a table of content on the footer. I mean, don't have the footer on Table of content, the page number, and then for the rest, you have it. You can go ahead now and update out the table and update the entire table, and you can see that the page number updates as well. So over here in the main page, let's say what I want is I want the cover page. So to do that, I'm going to go round over here onto Insert, go to Cover Paste rot here and choose a cover paste that I want. Let me just go ahead and choose this one, let's say, for example, and there you go, here. Let me just press delete here to go ahead and remove off the space so that the table of content get onto the space. And this is what you have, as you can see, right here. So now, this is benefits of online learning. So let me just go ahead and copy it. And in document, let me just go ahead and press Control SIF V here to go ahead and then phase it out. So let's just go ahead and left align it right here, and then I'm going to go around and remove out everything else. I have my name here, so let's just go ahead and then turn it capital right here just like this. Here just like this. I'm going to go ahead and then change out the abstract as well. Let's just go ahead and remove it out. This is what you have, as you can see here, and now you got the document format as necessary. As we move along, we're going to even work around with headers and adding more information to Footer and even see how we can customize header and footer text as well to make our document even more appealing. 7. Headers and Footers: So now we have went around and then formatted our document till here. So let's say now what we want to do is go ahead and work around with headers and footers so that we can go ahead and add in some text. So here you can see that already there is the footer rot here which says phase one, as you can see, which is already a part of the footer. So now if I were to go around over here on the top, you can go ahead and let's say, for example, add in the content. Let's say, for example, I can go ahead and let's say, for example, say benefits of online. Online learning right here, just like this. So once I go ahead and do that, I can go ahead and let's say, for example, go ahead and center align this out right here, just like this. Let's press Enter to go ahead and add in a bit of a space as well. And then you can see that the header space changes out accordingly right here. So now as I were to do this, you can see the benefits of online learning in Table of Contents as well, right here, just like this. So I can go ahead onto the beginning. There's the benefits of online learning right here. I just want the header, let's say, for example, from Section two, so not on Section one. So I'm just going to go ahead and remove the link to previous. And then as I did with the page number, I'm going to go ahead and remove that, and you can see that I only have the headers on the rest of the pages now. Similarly, over here, you can see that there's Phase one a here. Let me just press Enter, and then it goes ahead and then that's in a space to it, here, just like this. So you can go ahead and add in more content to it as well. Let's say, for example, I'm going to go ahead and say healthy Let's say, for example, I'm going to go around and say, education is education is important here, just like this. You can go ahead and do that here. And then you can see that footer changes out, as well. So if I were to actually go ahead, yes. So this is what you have, as you can see. So I can go ahead and let's say, for example, work around with this. Let's just go around over here onto view and then go around over here onto vertical mode, you'll be able to see this as well and zoom in and see more content here like this arranged out in different ways. So you can see benefits of online learning R here. Let me just bow this out and then go ahead and change out the color as well as I need a here. So it is more interesting to look at. Let's just go around over here as well and then change around the color for this one, as well. So now as I do this, I can go ahead and let's say, for example, go ahead and add in background color to this as well if I want to here. Let me just go ahead and add in this and you can see that this is what you have. And now once you do that, you can see that it changes out the outlook of each and everything. Let's just go around over here as well on benefits of online learning here. And then I'm going to go around over here and back. Let's say, for example, go add in yellow background or green background to this. Let's add in yellow. And then this is what you have, as you can see here. So there's a subtle yellow background rate and in header and footer, you can see that it actually goes ahead and fades out the text, but that is normal and if you were to go ahead and export it out to PDF or print it out, it'll be printed out or exported normally as well. This is how you can actually go ahead and then add in headers and footers as well to make your document look much more interesting. As we move along, we're going to now see how we can make the document even more interesting by adding in images as we want as well and then place it in the document as necessary. 8. Inserting and Formatting Images: So one of the things that you can do inside of Microsoft Word to make the document more interesting is go ahead and add in images. So to do that, over here you can see that there's benefits of online learning. And let's say in each page, I want to add in two images to make it interesting. So over here you can see there's benefits of online learning. So let's say I want to go ahead and add an image. So to do that, you can go to the Inset menu. Then you can go around over here onto pictures. And here, what you can do is choose this device if you want to add in images that you have, or if you want to set the image online, then you can go to Inset, go to pictures, and then go to online pictures here. So once I go ahead and do that, it opens up being set sin as you can see here, and you can search for the picture that you want. Let's say, for example, over here, I want online learning. So let me just go ahead and then search for the Word online learning. It's a good idea to keep the creative commons on because it'll sets for images that are free to use. So let's say, for example, I want to go ahead and utilize this right here for online learning. Simply go ahead and click on Inset and it'll download out the image and keep it right there just like this. So let's say I want another image. So let me just delete that and go ahead right here and then go around onto pictures onto online pictures again. So once I go ahead and do that, let me just set for the Word learning right here, just like this and see what comes up. So you can see that there's many different learning as you can see here just like this, and there's E learning with IO. So let me just go ahead and choose that and click on Inset, and this is what you have. So you can see that this comes up by the letter as well. So let's just go ahead and remove that out right here and then resize this out. So you can see that this is an image, so let's just go ahead right here, just like this. So you can see that I can format it out, save it in set caption. Let me just go ahead and resize this image out right here, just like this. So you can see that I can freely resize it, but it's a good idea to hold SIF so that it resizes in a proper proportion. So let's resize it, and then I'm going to go ahead and wrap it off. So you can go ahead. Make keep it in front of text behind the text, right here, around the text, but I'm going to go ahead and choose square so that it squares up and then it pushes the text apart right here, just like this. So this is what you have, and this is the image that you have. And let's say per piece I want two images. So this is the first image, and over here, I want to add in another image representing affordability. So I'm going to go to Inset, and then I'm going to go to pictures online pictures right here. And affordability is money. So let's just go ahead and says for money, right here, and then it'll show up images related to money. Let's just keep this one here and click on Inset and it downloads that Ort here. Let's just go ahead and resize that out rat here, just like this and then go ahead and let's say square it off as well. So now you can go ahead and place it wherever you want just like this as well to make it interesting right here. So now as I add in images, I want to make sure that the sections here, like accessibility and so forth, is not spanning across two phases right here. For example, global opportunities is spanning across next space. So I want to add up some image so that it takes up some space so that global opportunities go to the next phase itself. So for the accessibility here, I'm going to go around over here onto Insert, let's say, for example, and then go to pictures, then online pictures right here. And I'm going to use an image of a globe. So I'm just going to go around and say globe rot here, press Enter, so that it opens up the globe Image rot here. So I want to go ahead and utilize this one right here, which is more of a vector like graphics, as you can see, then you can see that this is what you have. I can now go ahead and then square it off here just like this. So now you can see that this particular content rot here moves a bit downwards. So I'm going to go ahead and add in one more image so that this spot goes downwards totally. So I'm going to go ahead onto inset, then pictures, then online pictures right here. So another one is skill development. I'm just going to go around and search for the Word skill. Let's say, for example, right here, just like this. And then there's many related images, as you can see right here, like skill. This one is interesting, as well. So let's just go ahead and insert it out right here, and this is what you have. What I'm going to do is go ahead and bring this up right here. Let's just go ahead and resize. And then I'm going to go ahead and let's say, for example, square it off right here as well, so that I can go ahead and bring it down right here just like this. So now, as I do this, you can actually see that global opportunities go to the next phase. But you can see that this particular image has not fully loaded. So you can still see that they are, um, pixelated. So let's just go ahead and delete it and insert it out once more. So I'm going to go to online pictures right here, and then I'm going to go ahead and set for skill once more. And once I do that, you can see that this is still there. So let's just go ahead and insert it right here, just like this. So this image does not seem to cut it out, so let's just go ahead right here. There seems to be a technical error, and sometimes that happens. So let's just go ahead and set for skills, right here, just like this. And then add in a different image. So this one right here is seems like good. So let's just go ahead here, click on it and click on Inset here. So that is what you have. So let's just go ahead and resize it out here, and then I'm going to go ahead and then, uh let's say, for example, square it off as well, keep it. And this is what you have. So you got the skill development part right here. Apart from that, now you see the global opportunities. I'm going to go ahead and then add in the picture for opportunities. So let's just go ahead over here onto Insert picture, and I'm going to go around and say opportunity right here, just like this. And then what I'm going to do is go ahead and choose an image like this one and then click on Inset right here, opportunity and I'm going to go ahead and square it off as well, just like this. So this is what you have right here, and apart from that, I'm going to add in examples. So let's just go around over here and then go to online picture. And let's just go ahead and add in the picture of success. Let's say, for example, in the example part. So let's just go on to success, and you can see that this is what you have. So let's just go ahead and insert it out right here. You get more examples of success online. And if I were to go around and do that, you can see that it simply goes ahead right here, and now you can place it as you want. And I want to go ahead and resize out the Image so that the next content goes to the next phase. So apart from this, you can see the practical tips for online learning, which I'm going to go ahead and insert out, let's say, for example, a Tips Imas. So I'm going to go around over here onto online pictures right here. And now, what I'm going to do is search for Imas that's related to tips. I'm just going to go ahead and select that and then I'm going to go ahead and utilize, let's say, for example, this image right here, click on Inset right here so that it goes ahead and gets downloaded. I'm going to go ahead and let's say, for example, square it off here again and then resize this out. Let me just press Control Z, and there's this text here that I want to go ahead and remove right here. And now I'm going to go ahead hold sift and resize it so that it does not actually go ahead and then destroy the Aspec ratio here. So it seems like there's an error right here on this particular image. So let's just go ahead and click and drag it by pressing Control Z. Uh, right here and drag it off right there. Sometimes you can see that there's an error in selection here. So let's just go ahead down right here just like this. And then let's just press Control J. So there seems to be an error. Let's just press Control J t here, and then drag it out onto the other piece. And now let's just go ahead and then whole sift and resize it and clease it out. So let's just go ahead, here. Resize this out right here and I'm going to go ahead and keep it, let's say, for example, in front frat here because I want to keep it right around over here, just like this for tips. Then finally, for the conclusion, I'm going to go ahead right here, and then I'm going to go ahead and then search for online images and use the term in right here, just like this. An right here, just like this. And then you can see that there's different contents related to learn. So this is what you have, so I'm just going to go around over here for learning, click on Insert and insert that picture out. So now what I'm going to do is I'm going to go ahead and let's say, for example, go ahead right here and square it off right here, resize the learning out, right here, just like this, drag it down. And then if I were to go ahead and let's say, for example, write it, right click it, I can go ahead and drop it off as well, just like this, right here. So this is what you have, and then you can go ahead and drag this down right here, and this is what you have. Let's just go ahead and drop it off here, just like this. Right click, and then I'm going to go ahead and then crop it off. So just like this, this is what you have. You can see that, but let me just go around over here onto the picture format onto crop here on the top so that I can go ahead and crop it off right here, just like this as well. So let's just go ahead and drag this down. And then this is what you have. Crop and then drag up the handles down, drag the handles up right here, and then go ahead and select this up. So now I'm going to go ahead and place it right around over here. And now you can see that we have our document ready. So we have the pictures, and you can see that it makes it quite interesting as we go ahead and add in the pictures. If I were to go around over here onto layout, I can also go around over here, right here and see. Let's just go around over here onto view R here, and then go for side by side. Let's say, for example, and you can already see that the changes are reflected easily just like. And that is how you can go ahead and inset out and format images as you need right here. So if you want to go ahead and let's say, for example, add some effects to it, you can even go ahead and select an image, go to picture format and change around the color of the image as well, just like this. You can go for corrections and make it much more brighter as well, just like this, as you can see by choosing around the option right here as needed, just like this. So for example, if this money is a bit dark, you can simply go ahead and make it more bright right here, just like this as well. So now if I were to go ahead and select this out, then you can see that we can go ahead and make very detailed changes to it as necessary. And as we move along now, we're going to go ahead and see how we can go ahead and add in more contents to make the document more interesting as well. 9. Creating and Formatting Tables: So over here, you can see that I have this document ready with the images and everything now. So let's say what I want to actually do at the end is go ahead and add in a table as well to make it more interesting. So after the conclusion here just like this, I'm going to go around onto the N and press Control Enter so that I get to the next phase. So over here, I'm going to go around over here onto view and then go for the vertical view here. So here, what I want to do is go ahead and insert out a table. Let's say, for example, to add in some data. So to do that, I'm going to go ahead and then go around over here onto Insert, then choose table, and then I'm going to go ahead and choose the number of columns and rows here just like this. Let's just go around and choose six rows itself. So now I'm going to go ahead and add in some contents right here. So I'm going to go ahead right here and drag this down a bit. And let's say I want to go ahead and add in a text. So let's just go ahead and press Enter. And over here, I'm going to add in something like key benefits of online learning right here just like this. Once I go ahead right here, this is what I have, and I'm going to go ahead and turn this into a heading right here. Key benefits after conclusion. There's the key benefits like points, remember, right here. Now you can see that this table is here. Let's just go ahead and bring it out right here and place it out. You can see that you got this handle that you can go ahead and place it as you like. So now let me just go ahead and track this right here, just like this. So now over here, I'm going to add in benefit. Let's say, for example, and then I'm going to go around and say, high right here, just like this. You can go ahead and bull this around as well. And similarly, I can go ahead and type in other things right here. So, let's say, for example, I already have some contents, so I'm just going to go ahead and paste these out right here, just like this. So I'm just going to go ahead and then paste these out. So let's just go ahead over here and paste this table out right here, just like this. So this is what you have, so let's just go ahead and cut it out and then place this out. So let's just go ahead right here, press Control C, Control V, right here. So I'm just going to press Control C and Control V so that I can go ahead and add it in. This table right here, let's just go ahead and then delete this out. Let's just go ahead and then, let's say, for example, right click right here, just like this, and then I'm going to go ahead and delete it. Or you can see that this is the table right here. Let's just go ahead and then select out all of the rules right here. And then let's just go ahead and delete out the table altogether. So you can see that this is what you have now. Now what I can actually do is I can go ahead and resize this outright here. And if I want to add in one more row, I can go ahead and press Sab as well. Let me just press Control Z, and over here, I can select all press Control B to pull these outright here. And to give it a style, I can simply go ahead and select it and then go to Table Design. Over here, you can see that I can go choose different designs as I wish right here, like this one, and so forth. I'm going to go ahead right here, bowl this out right here, and I'm going to go ahead and center align this out and increase out the font as well, just like this. So you can see that this is the design that you have right here. Let me just go ahead and select these out right here, and apart from that, you can see that I can go ahead here, just like this. Let's say, for example, this one and then arrange it out as you like. This is center aligned at the moment, as you can see right here. But you can go ahead and add in other contents as you like, as well and make teens so let's just enter, and you can see that it actually goes ahead right here onto the next line as well. So let me just go ahead and keep it as it is. So now over here, I'm going to select OO and pull this out as well, just like this. And I want to go ahead and expand the size of it. So let me just go ahead and expand the size of it as well. So you can just go ahead and pull these out right here, just like this. And you can go ahead and expand the size of each and every table rose here just like this as well. You can see that after the conclusion, I have this now, that is the table rose that I have. I utilize out my design there's a s that, but you can also go ahead right here, select out a certain sections for example, and fill it out with different colors as you want, as well, just like this. You can go ahead and choose this one so you don't have alternate rose. You can go ahead here, let's say for example and choose out a darker color here, giving it a more interesting look just like that as well. So that is what you have, and apart from that, you can select out all right here and right click, go to Table properties as well. And over here, you can see that this is the cell. You can align everything to the center as well so that you can see that it is more well spaced. Let's just go around over here onto the title, as well. So let's just go around over here onto table properties. This is already in the center, so that's fine. And apart from that, you can also go ahead and specify the height of the row here just like this. And then you can also go ahead and utilize different settings. So let's say, for example, I'm going to go around and press Okay, and this is what you have, as you can see. Apart from that, you can also go around over here onto border styles, as you can see right here, just like this. So let's just go around over here. There's border styles, as you can see, and then choose the border style as you like, like this one. And then you see the border style right here being applied, just like that as well. So you can go ahead and click and drag out and then apply out the border style. Just like this by drawing in as well. So you can go ahead and stylize it out according to how you want. So this is the border painter that had been active right here while I actually went ahead and drew. So over here, you can see the sading as well. You can even see the border styles right here and so forth. So let's just go around over here and in Word style, let's just select this one right here, and then you can go ahead and click to go ahead and add those boda styles as you want, as well. And you can go ahead right here, click on it, and this is what you have. So now, apart from that, you can also go ahead and add in a total row so that it is different. You can add in last column as well to make it different here. You can add in banded columns as well if you want to, and you can also go ahead and change these out like first columns, the header row. Right here by clicking on these buttons right here. As long as you have them, it'll make sense. But in my case, I only have the first column right here just like this, so everything else does not really matter. You can go ahead and experiment as you need right here and design it as you like. Similarly, you can see that this makes it interesting, and that is how you can go ahead and create out and format out tables as you need, as well. And as we move along, we're going to go ahead and see how we can further add in some shapes as we like and even utilize something called SmartArt to make the content interesting as well. 10. Adding SmartArt and Shapes: So our document is already looking wonderful with the Cava paz, with the table of contents, with the images, with the well formatted text, and even a table at the end. So now let's say I want to add in a visual element over here as well to make it more interesting. So to do that, I can go ahead and utilize something called smart shapes. So if you were to go around over here onto Insert, you can see that SmartArt is an option, and as you click on it, there's many different smart arts that you can go ahead and insert, like for example, there's cycle here, there's relationship, hierarchy, and so forth as you want to bring in. So let's just go around over here onto list and you can see that there's different sort of list and so forth. But in cycle, you can actually see that I got this radial cluster, which I want to actually go ahead and bring in, let's say, for example, right here. So now, over here, what you can actually do is you can go ahead and then add in these very things right here, just like this. These very things right here in the center. So I'm just going to go around and say key benefits right here, just like this. So I'm just going to go around and say key benefits. And over here in the text, I'm going to say flexibility right here, just like this. And I'm going to go around and say four d billy right here, just like this. And I'm going to go ahead and say accessibily right here, just like this, press tab, and then you can see that it rearranges as well. But let me just press Control J and press Enter right here. I want to add in one more point. So I'm just going to go around and say personalization here, and then I'm going to press Enter, and then I'm going to say skill development here, and I'm going to say global reads right here, just like this, and I'm going to say lifelong learning R here. So you can see that these are the key benefits and it represents the graphics above. Let me just go around over here, press Enter just like this so that it leaves out a space as well. So you can see that this is what you have, and then apart from that, if I were to go to Smart Design, you can go ahead and choose different templates right here as well, and even go ahead and change out the color as you wish right here to make it more colorful and choose different designs right here, just like this. So you can choose the one that you like. For example, you can go for this one right here as you can see, or this one and so forth, more of a three look or plain look as you can see, right here. So let's just go around over here and then go around for this intense effect rot here, and this is what you have, as you can see here. So now you can also go ahead and let's say, for example, change around the uh, font size here, just like this as well or breast control to keep it as it is. You can also go ahead and resize these stapes out as well as you want here, just like this so that it goes ahead and changes around the text, right here. So you can go ahead and then make some changes around over here, just like this so that the text is a bit more larger and it's more readable right here, just like this. And this is how you can go ahead and add in more visuals as well. Apart from that, if you want to go ahead and add in shapes as you want, then you can do that as well. If I were to go around over here onto insert, then you can see some shapes here that you can go ahead and inset as well if you want to. For example, I can go for circle, draw around a circle here, and for design, you can go ahead and keep it wherever you want. But I don't need any in my document, so I'm just going to go ahead and remove them out. Can go around over here onto insert onto shapes. And let's say, for example, you can grab any shape here like rectangle and even go ahead and type in contents on it as well to make it interesting. Then utilize these handles right here to go ahead and change around how the shapes look as well, and utilize the colors on the top here to change out its outlook and color as well. And like I said, I don't actually need these right here, but if you want to go ahead and insert it anyways, you can go around over here, insert out arrows as well if you want to. And apart from that, you even have access to different icons as well that you can go ahead and insert. So you can see that there's many different icons that you can go ahead and select and then click on Insert R here to go ahead and insert it out just like pictures as well. But let me just go ahead and press Delete in my case right here. And that is how you can go ahead and add in SmartArt and shapes as necessary in your document as well. And now we're going to go ahead and see how we can refine and police as we move along to actually make our document even better as we move along. And then finally, we will be able to go ahead and then learn how to save this out in different formats as necessary as well. 11. Applying Themes and Design Elements: So we have our document ready in a certain level. And now let's go ahead and see how we can actually go ahead and apply themes as we want to it, as well. So to do that, I can go around over here onto the design section and you can see that this is the theme we are currently applying. But I can go ahead and choose other theme here, simple click and other theme will be applied, changing the entire outlook of the document. You can go ahead and choose different ones as you like here, just like this. And you can see that overall you can see that the design changes out. Let me just press Control Zed because I want to go ahead and rebut back to the original one that we work with. Apart from that, you can also go around and work around with different color schemes that you see right here and change around the look as you want, as well. And then as you hover over, you can see that you can go ahead and apply different color scheme to it as well. But I want to just use the one that I work with, so I'm just going to press Control Jed. There's different themes, as you can see over here as well that you can go ahead and utilize and even browse for different themes as you want to, as well. But what you need to keep in mind is make sure that everything is consistent and professional. But now, in order to make the document more interesting, let's just go ahead and utilize something called Base borders. So to do that over here under design, you can see that Base border is an option, and you can go ahead and utilize different sort of borders. So let's just use box sort of a border in my case, and you can go ahead and choose where you want the borders. I'm just going to go ahead and keep it R here. I'm going to choose a las border and press Okay. Once you do that, you can see that you can add in water like this to your document as well, just like this. So let's just go around onto Pace border, and you can go ahead and choose dash lines like this as well, or jagged lines. But it's a good idea to keep it as simple as possible, as you can make it very fancy as well with artwork and everything, but it kind of looks like childish at this point. I'm just going to go around and use a thick style right here, just like this, add it into whole document, but let me just not add it to the left, press Okay. And then this is what you have, as you can see here, just like this. So this is the document that you have right here, and the page border has been applied as well. And that is how you can go ahead and apply out themes in different design elements as you need, as well. And now we're going to go ahead and move forward to proof reading and check if everything that we have done so far is in correct order, and then we'll go ahead and see how we can work around with references as necessary and even go ahead and add in final touches and then finally go for exporting and printing. 12. Proofing and Reviewing: So as you go ahead and make documents, you might have some spelling errors. For example, over here, there is a spelling error, which is denoted by this red underline here. To correct it, what you can simply do is right click and you get the suggestion at here. You can ignore it if it is not actually giving a proper suggestion, maybe you typed in a name and it showed it as a spelling error, then you can ignore it. You can add it to dictionary so that it always shows that particular spelling as right, or you can go ahead and click on the correct spelling at here. But you may want to go ahead and check uh, if all of your document is error free. In that case, you can go around over here onto review section here. And here you can see that spelling and grammar is an option. So here what you can actually do is you can go ahead and then utilize the suggestions here. So you can see that it says learning, the spelling is an error, so I can go ahead and choose the one I one. So spelling of knowledge is an error right here, so you can choose the one. Or spelling of EDX is error, but it's actual platform, so I want to see that it is correct, and I don't want Word to ever say that it is an error, so I'm just going to go ahead and click on add to dictionary. So burn out, so this is an error. So let's just go ahead and use the suggestion Evolving that's an error. So let me just go ahead and correct it, and this is what you have, as you can see. So now, this is what you have. You got the spelling error corrected and so forth. Sometimes what also happens is that there may be multiple people working on the same document, or you may just be making a change, but you're not sure whether you want to make the change. And in future, you may want to go ahead and then track those changes. In that case, under the review tab itself, you can see that track changes is an option itself, as well. So I can go ahead and enable this, and whenever I go ahead right let's say, for example, let's say, for example, it says resources anytime and anywhere. You can see the track changes is here. And as I click on it, you can see that this change is being tracked right here. So you have an option whether to accept it or reject it. Let me just press Control Z and resect, and what happens is that it gets removed right here, just like this, as you can see. So whenever you go ahead and make any changes, let's say, for example, I can go ahead and let's say, for example, you can learn learn it anywhere, you can see that it types it out so that the changes is being tracked so that you can accept it. You can accept and move to the next. So you may have made a few changes, or you may have shared this document with others, then you can actually utilize this as well. But in my case, I'm going to reject it because I don't want any of it. And as I finish accepting or rejecting, you can see that it says document is okay. So I can go ahead and turn off track changes there as well. And that is how you can go ahead and utilize the proof reading and reviewing feature inside of your document as well. And now we have our document ready. And let's say now I want to go ahead and add in some references for it. And in the next video, we're going to exactly see how we can actually go ahead and add in references as needed. 13. Adding References: So over here, you can see that I have this document ready. And let's say what I'm going to do is I'm going to go ahead and add in references to this. So for that, first of all, you need to go ahead and maintain a reference list so that you can go ahead and insert it out. So to do that, you need to go to the references tab, and over here, you can see that you got the style of reference. You can choose different styles as you want right here, like EmiA or APA or Harvard, as you can see, right here. Let's stick to APA right here just like this, and then I'm going to click on Manus sources. So over here you can see that I can go ahead and then click on and then choose the source as I want and enter out the details. Let's say I'm going to select book, and I have a bunch of references here, just like this, as you can see in the text file. So let's just go ahead and use this to copy it up. So over here you can see that first of all, you got a book right here with ISBN number and everything. So this is a report. So let's just go ahead and add this title here, just like this. Then I'm going to go ahead. Here's the publisher. Uh, right here. That's Batson Survey Research Group. So let's just go ahead and paste it here. Then, similarly, I got the city, so I'm just going to go ahead and add the city of publication right here. I don't need to enter all of the details, and there's the URL as well, but I'm not going to go ahead and bother regarding it. So I'm just going to go around over here onto the author Edit, right here, just like this. And then I can go ahead and add in let's say, for example, the first name and then the last name right here, just like this, add it in. And then I'm going to go ahead and add in the first name and last name right here, just like this, again, right here. So first name and last name, and I'm going to add it in, press Okay. So this is what you have, and finally, you need the year of publication, which is 2017. So I'm going to press Okay, and that has been added in. Similarly to add in other sources. Let's say, for example, there's another source here. So this is from, let's say, Antonio William Bates. So let's just go ahead. So this is books as well, so I'm just going to go ahead and edit, and then I'm going to go ahead and then add in the first name Williams over here in the middle name, and Bates at the last rat here just like this. So go ahead and add it, and that is what you have apart from that, now you can go ahead and add in, let's say, for example, 2019, right here, just like this. And over here, you got the title right here. Then you got the city, as you can see, which is Vancouver, then you have the publisher right here, Tony Bs Associate right here. So let's just go ahead and add it in, and then I'm going to go ahead and add in other source as well. In this case, this is a websurce. I'm just going to go ahead and select the website. And now what I'm going to do is add in a corporate author because this is a company, and then I'm going to go ahead and add in other things. So there's year of accessing. I don't need year of publication at here. So I'm just going to say I access this in 2025, August. And let's say I'm going to say I access this in 2016, so I'm going to keep that as it is. And I'm going to go ahead and set the URL to this R name of the webpage is what is being as rat here, so that is about Coursera is the title. So let's just go ahead and add that in. The name of the website, of course, is Coursera. So let's just go ahead and add that in as well. Similarly, I can go ahead and select the type of reference that I want and then add things in. I got a few more. So let's just go ahead and do the same for those as well. You can see that I have the rat here, which is actually a book. So let's just go ahead and go for book itself. And then I'm going to go ahead and edit and add in the first name and last name rat here. So let's just go ahead and cut it. Go ahead and add it, press Okay. And then I'm going to go ahead and add in the date, as well. So this is the year of publication at here. Then I'm going to go ahead and then add in the title right here, just like this. And then I'm going to go ahead right here. So it seems like the title is Tech trend, so you can see the book section over here as well. So let's just go ahead over here, add in the title as Tech trend, or maybe let's just go for book section in this case, right here. So the book title is TechTrend and then you can see that the title over here of the chapter is this one. What do you mean by net earning? And apart from that, you can see that you got the pays number as well. So let's just go ahead and add those in over there as well. And then you got the publication city of Cham R here, let's just go ahead and add that in as well. So this is what you have, and then you got the publisher, as well. It's Springer as you can see here. So that is what you have, and then you can press Okay, you got the other sources as well. So now let's just go ahead and add this one. So Wil Economic form is a corporate author, so let's just add that in as corporate author. And this seems to be a URL rat here, just like this. So let's just go ahead and change this up into website, add in the URL rat here. This is the title. Just like this. I'm just going to add in the name of the web page right here just like this. And then the name of the website is We Form. So let's just go ahead and say we form here like this, add in the name of the website as well. And then apart from that, you can see that you got City and everything, but you just need the access date. So I'm just going to say 2025, and this is going to be August and then 2017. Let's say, access it in 2017. So now I'm going to go ahead on to new R here. And then apart from that, you got the final one. So let's just go ahead and add in these authors as well. So there's Deju as the first name, and then there's the last name. Let's go ahead and add it, and then you got Yang Hu as you can see right here. So let's just go ahead and cut it, add it right here. So this is how you can go ahead and maintain out everything. So in my case, this is a URL as well, just like this. As you can see, Research product, which is a report has an ISBN number, so it's book itself as well. So apart from that, you can also choose journal article if it is a journal article, as you can see right here. So you can see that this is what you have. Seems like this is a website itself, so you can go ahead and then I'm going to go ahead and then references out as a website. So let's just go ahead right here. I'm going to go for website itself, add in this, right here, just like this. And then I'm going to go ahead and add in the title of the website right here, just like this. And the website name is American Enterprise Institute, which is right here. As you can see, and I'm going to go ahead and add in the details. So let's say, for example, August and I'm going to say, I access this on 18. Press Okay. So now you can see that this is the reference list that you have, which has been inserted. And now, if you want to go ahead and add in the references at the end, then you can go ahead and press Control Enter, add in another page. Over here, you can click on biblography and then go ahead and choose the title that you want, whether you want it to be biblography references or excited. So let's just go around onto references. And in APA style, you can see that it has been added in right here. So you can see that there's a bit of a space t here. So let's say I want to left align in this case, so you can go ahead and left align the references right here as well. So now what you may want to do is go ahead and add in intext citations for this as well so that you can cite out the contents accordingly as well. So over here, so now you can see it says online learning has grown exponentially. So on the top, you got this text, and I actually took this text, let's say, for example, from that source. So now I can go ahead over here right after the sentence and then reference the sentence out. For example, it says, online learning has grown exponentially in recent years. So this is from Alan and Siemens, so I'm just going to go around over here and then go to references and over here in Insert uh, citation and just zoo this out. And there's the intex citation right there. Similarly, if it says students can organize. So let's just go ahead and it says, students can organize their study schedules according to their professional commitments. This is also from the same source. I'm just going to go ahead right here and insert that out, as well. And that is how you can go ahead and add in an intex citation as you want, as well. So now, apart from that, you can also see, let's say, for example, student with disabilities. So that is, let's say, for example, from certain source. So let's just press Control F to go ahead and set for a particular content as I want. So students with, let's say, for example, disabilities also benefit from online learning. So let's say this is from one source, then I can go ahead, press the space bar, go around onto insert citation at here, and this is from Bates Rate. Apart from that, students can organize their study schedule. Let's say, for example, that is also from Bates. I'm just going to say can organize, you got this sentence here. This is also here. Students can organize their study schedules here, just like this. You can go ahead and let's say this is from Bates as well. You can go inside this particular citation and then add that in as well. It's comma Bates, as you can see here. And now I'm going to go ahead and say Lens can enroll in courses by top. So I'm going so that is from Coursera. So let's just go ahead and say Lens or you can go ahead and then add these while you're actually making up your document, as well. So Lens can roll, let's say, for example, R here. So this one is from Coursera itself, so let's just go ahead and add this to Coursera. So let's just go ahead, add incursa for this one. And apart from that, organizations from Corsera, organizations like coursera. So let's just go ahead and search for that as well. Organizations coursera have millions of things online. So I'm just going to go ahead and add in coursera here just like this, as well. So that is how you can go ahead and search and add in content as well. So there's other contents as well, so there's online learning supports personal education tailored to certain things. So I'm just going to go ahead and says that sets out for sentences. Let's say, for example, online learning supports, let's say, for example, and personalized tailored and individual needs. So this one right here, let's just go ahead and add in, let's say, for example, inset citation. So this is from Stephen. So austinski is how you pronounce it, I guess, so I'm just going to go ahead and add that in. So there's another thing called lifelong approach that's also from the same author. So life long life long approach right here, just like this. So let's just go ahead and set. So this one is also from the same author right here. So I can add it in right here, as you can see. So apart from that, you also have the next one. So I'm just going to go around over here onto something related to global events. So let's say global events, right here, just like this. So global events such as pandemics, right here. So this is from the COVID 19 report of World Economic form, so I'm just going to go around over here and then add that in here. Apart from that, I may have something related to COVID 19, right here, so COVID 19, just like this. COVID right here, just like this. As you can see, this is right there. So this is from economic reform itself. So now, there may be something related to challenges as well. So let's just go head on to challenges right here, challenges, such challenges right here, just like this. So let's just go round onto the challenges section. This is what you have. So let's say this one right here is from a Ju right here. So I'm just going to go round and say Judy and Ju Yen. So let's just go ahead and then add that in right there. So now, apart from that, you can see the conclusion as well. So now I can go ahead and add in the same author here, just like this. So now, this is how you can actually go ahead and add in intext citation and then go ahead and add in the reference list as necessary in the format that you want. So right now this is an APA, but let's say, for example, if I were to go to Cicago then everything changes out right here. So now you got the Cicago style. You can go for MLA style and even the intex citation, as you can see, changes out dynamically, right there, Hubot style, and then you can see that it changes out dynamically, right here, just like that. Let's just go ahead onto APA, right here, just like this, and this is what you have. So let's just go ahead right here, left line it at the end, and then now we have our content here just like this, along with the references as necessary and then citations as well. And that is how you can go ahead and add in references, and you can go around over here onto the references section. And then if you need it, you can also go ahead and add in a footnote as well if needed. In my case, I don't need any, so I'm just going to leave it as it is by pressing Control jet. So that is how you can go ahead and add in references to your document. And now we're going to go ahead and make final touches and see pages for consistency as we move along before we wrap up and Saba our project and export out our project in the formats that we require. 14. Giving Final Touches: So as I go ahead and make changes out to the contents, there may be change in the Table of Contents. So if you want to go ahead and change around the table of content and to update it, you can simply go ahead and click on Update Table over here. So you can update the entire table or only update the page number. In my case, I'm going to update the entire table here, and you can see that references is added in a here. So apart from that, you can also go around over here onto references. And then over here in Table of Contents, you can choose another type of Table of content as well. But let me just go ahead and undo it out here because I don't need to do that. Over here, as I added in content, I feel that this line is not actually looking good. So in that case, you can even go ahead and remove out the border if you want. So I'm just going to go around over here on the design section, and then I'm going to go to Pays border rot here and add in the border on the left hand side as well. And let me just go ahead and utilize this small border rot here and press Okay. So you can see that I have this. So let's just go ahead and apply this border rot here, just like this. And you can see that I got a tiny border here, just like this, as you can see. So let's say this is what I want. So this is how you can actually go ahead and then make some changes as you wish right here to the document in order to finalize out everything right here. And now let's say what I want to do is, this is the document that I want right here. Let me just go ahead and then make a few changes right here, just like this, or maybe I just want to delete this out right here, and this is the document that I have. So now as we have made the final changes, now we're going to go ahead and then export this out. But let's see, like this is the pace layout that we have right here. If I were to go around over here, you can see that this is the size, AFO size is fine. So you want to go ahead and make some changes, then you can go ahead and make some changes to it, as well. So this is what you have right here. And now we're going to go ahead and focus on exporting this a PDF file, and even we'll see the printing options as we follow along in the next video. 15. Exporting and Printing: So we now have our Microsoftware document ready right here, just like this. So let's say what we want to do is we want to go ahead and print it out. So to do that, you need to know how it actually will look while it's printing. So before you actually go ahead and print it, you can actually go to FLR here. And then what you can do is go around onto print. So here you will be able to see a preview of how everything looks. So here you can see that there's the border and everything right here. But you can see that only the top border is being seen right here. So if I were to actually go back, you can see that there is the top border over here as well. But if I were to go around over here onto print, you don't see that anymore. So here you can even go ahead and select out the printer that you want to use for printing. Don't have a physical printer attached, so I'm just going to choose the printer as I like. And you can see that whenever you actually go ahead and choose the correct printer, the border is border issue that's corrected, just like that, as well. So sometimes some printers don't support some sort of a border. So in that case, you can simply go ahead and then chains out uh, the borderline and then add in margins as needed. So over here you can see that I can go ahead and select out particular pace for printing as well. For example, I can say two and three page over here just like this as well, and just print that out. Well let me just go around over here onto print. And in my case, I want to print all, so I'm just going to print all pages. You can also go ahead and just print the current page here and even go ahead right here and go for specific pages like two to five br here, just like this as well. So you can choose particular page numbers as well. But in my case, I'm going to select all pages. And choose whether you want to print one sided or manually print on both sides as well. So if your printer has support for both side printing, you'll see that option over here as well. You can print it in order. So if you are printing more than one copies, let's say, for example, you can print in one, two, three, one, two, three order or you can page individual pages 1 by one. Yeah. Apart from that, you can also go ahead and choose a particular page size and even go ahead and choose the margins as you want, as well. And then you can see that on the fly, you see the chains here. You can go for narrow margin or normal margin rot here, just like this as needed, or even go for different sort of sizes and see how everything will actually look like as you go ahead and change that out. You can even change the orientation rot here to landscape as well. But let me just go around onto portrait and select A four itself. So this is the original content that I have here for the Marsin, let's just go around and use the custom settings itself because I actually minus out everything for the custom setting itself. So you can choose one page per seat or even choose to print two pages per seat or even six pages per seat, as you can see here and go to the page setup and change out the pages before you print, as well. Mine is actually set to a virtual printer, so it'll actually go ahead and print it out as a PDF file. So if I were to go ahead and print it, it'll actually go ahead and ask me to save as a PDF document. So over here on my desktop, let me just go ahead and save this out as sample dot PDF right here, just like this and click on C. So once I do that, you will be able to see on your Dktop right here. So you got this file right here, which is a PDF file. So if I were to go ahead, so let's just go ahead and I'm just going to go ahead and use Firefox to go ahead and open that out. And then you will be able to go ahead and see it. So you can see that this is the file in the PDFfle right here. So let's just go ahead and close it. You can see that it has been exported out. So if you were to actually go ahead and print it, it would be printed out like this. Well, let's say, instead of printing, you just need to save it as a PDFfle. In that case, all you need to do is go to the file menu, and then you can go ahead and see that save a copy is an option or save as now as an option, you'll get that as well. So go over here on to save a copy or save as, whatever you see it, and then go around over here onto browse here and select out the folder. So I'm just going to select Desktop itself. And over here in Save As type, you can go ahead and select out PDF over here as well. So let me just go ahead and save it. And then what happens is that that is what you have. So you can see that this opens up as a PDF R here. So this is what you have and this is the PDF file that we actually save from. And right now, my document is actually auto saved onto my one drive account. And if you want to save it separately, then all you need to do is go around over here, save a copy, a and then go around over here onto browse, just like this. And you can choose Microsoft Word document as well. There's many different formats that you can choose, for example, if you're saving for an older version of Word like 97 or 2003, you can select Doc as well. You can save it as on plain texts as well, which does preserve the text, but you won't have any formatting and so forth. There's the PDF, of course, and there's the open source format of Ritz text format. So you can go ahead and choose whatever you want. And you can simply go ahead and select out a folder where you want to go ahead and save it and click on Save. And then what happens is that you will be able to see this. But since I actually saved it here as a backup, what happens is that it says backup this document, open one drive here because I actually saved a copy. So whenever you make a change here, then you are saving to your local drive itself. So autosave is turned off, as you can see, so you can back it up or you can go around onto the previous document here, just like this, as well, and open up the original file and make changes there. And that is how you can actually go ahead and then export out and print out your document in Microsoft Word. And now, by saying this much and by exploring, so far, we have come to the end of the course. And now it's your turn to create a document and share it out. And in the next video, we're going to discuss what you need to do as your class project now. 16. Final Project Description: So as we have learned everything step by step, it's now time to put all that into practice with your course project. So in this project, what you'll be doing is you'll be creating a professional report just like this, which is about four to six pieces long. So what you'll do is you'll start with a blank Word document. So just go around over here, start out with a blank new document here. So once you go ahead and do that, what you need to do is paste in or type in the plain text first, and then save it so that you can continue working as you go along. From there, you'll be formatting the text right here, just like this. You'll be changing out the fonts, adding colors to it, change out their sizes, and use bold, italics and underlines as needed, and even highlights as necessary to emphasize the important points as you go along. You'll also organize your writing by aligning the paragraphs as we did here. So you can use left line, right line, or center line as needed. In my case, I have used the justification alignment, but in your case, you can do whatever you want. Then apart from that, you'll also be sure to use bulleted points here, which might be numbered or not as per your requirement. And then make sure to set proper line spacing in between the texts as well. So once all of those basics are ready, you will be applying heading styles as we did. To your section titles and insert an automatic table of contents which is generated as you assign out headings. Then you'll need to go ahead and adjust the pase layout, go to the layout section, adjust it out as we did, and then even add in section breaks right here to separate out the pase numbers. And even change the orientation for one section if needed, as well. And after that, you will customize the header with your name and project title. So make sure to include your name and project title, and a ad pase numbers in the Foote, as well. So also, make sure that you place a logo on your cover pase which may be an icon of your choice if you want to, and make sure to include at least one image in the document as well. If not, then more than one images would be good. Make sure that the image is wrapped around the text here. And then make sure that you have a sample table as well, just like this. So we have a table over here. Make sure you have one right there as well. It can be of a budget or a schedule and style it with borders and seedings as we did right here as well. And to make your report more visual, make sure you make sure you add a smart art diagram like this with shapes and arrows, boxes or icons as necessary. And then make sure you apply the theme to the whole document for a consistent look as well. So simply go around over here onto the design section here and apply a theme as necessary as well. So, apart from that, make sure you add in a border as well. For a more professional finish to your document. And after building such a structure, what you need to make sure to do is run the spell check and grammar right here from the review tab so that you don't have any grammatical or spelling errors. And then make sure that you have you utilize, let's say, track changes method feature as you go through and make the edits so that you remember what to edit as you work along if you need. Then apart from that, make sure you add in some citation as well. At least include one citation so that you know how you can go ahead and apply the things you've learned and then include the references section at the end, just like this as well. It can be in any format here from the list of choices that you have here. It can be APA, Hubbard, IEE and so forth, right here. So make sure that everything looks clean and consistent. And then finally, when the report is completed, make sure to export the document as a Word file, as well as a PDF file and make sure to submit those as your work. So I can't wait to see what you come up with for this. So I'd like to wish you all the best and hope that you utilize everything that we have learned throughout this course.
