Unit 0

Now let's talk about Unit 0

On my very first day of this class, when the professor began, I was honestly anxious and excited. As the class progressed, I realized there are many simple and general computer skills that I need to learn and practice. 

The main  topic that I have explored from Unit 0 

• Notebook setup

• Brightspace Observation

• SIMnet registration and essential SIMpath 

• Outlook SIMpath

• Professional email

Activities that I did:

• I started writing notes in my notebook about what I have learned and what I still need to learn.

• I discovered how we can share and comment on our learning through the discussion board by creating threads.

• I registered in SIMnet and practiced essential SIMpaths and Outlook.

• I explored Brightspace features such as checkmarks, dots, alternative formats, web pages,and its toolbar.

• I also wrote a professional email and submitted my professional email assignment.

What I have learned: 

• I have learned how information systems communicate information to us. 

• I already knew how to write an email, butI gained new skills in writing a professional emails. 

• I also learned key terms such as IS, LMS,UI, waffle (as related to UI), Hamburger (as related to UI), CC, BCC, attachment, signature file. 

• I learned how to create rules and signature files.

• I didn't know how to screenshot on a desktop-only on phone- so learning about Snipping Tool was fun for me.

Below are my screenshots of creating rule and signature file.

Reflection

Overall, it was very fun to learn Unit 0 because I was able to build, manage, and improve my computer knowledge and technology skills. Learning is not only a great experience, but also understanding the proper use of technology by exploring various computer tools and applying them in daily life as well as at work is truly valuable.
