Microsoft Word
I have been using Word for so many years but after completing the two Word SIMpaths I learned how to keep my papers very proffesional. The SIMpaths provided me more insight of Word features I’d never used before. Now I feel confident in writing a research paper with ease and precision.
Key Features I Discovered:
Key Features I Discovered:
Built -In Random Text Generator: Word has a built in feature where instead of copying and pasting placeholder content from websites Word has a native Random Text Generator that populates your page with standard filler text instantly.
Split Screen View: Word has a feature where you can look at two completely different pages of the exact same document at the same time. This is perfect for reviewing an introduction on page 1 while writing a conclusion on page 10.
Focus Mode: Word has a feature where If you get distracted by toolbars, buttons, and open menus, you can hide everything except your blank page. Focus Mode turns your workspace dark and centers your document to help you concentrate.
Microsoft Powerpoint

I've been using PowerPoint for plenty of projects for school and after completing the PowerPoint SIMpath I learned a few features that makes your presentation go from a 7/10 to a 10/10.

Key Features I Discovered:
The Morph Transition : On PowerPoint You can create seamless animations without manually configuring movement paths. The Morph transition automatically detects when an object changes position, size, or color from one slide to the next and animates the change for you.
PowerPoint Designer : On PowerPoint you can type text or add images to a blank slide, this tool instantly builds multiple professional layout options for you to choose from.
Animate Chart Elements : On PowerPoint Instead of showing a massive data chart all at once, you can make individual bars or lines appear one by one as you talk. This keeps your audience focused on the specific numbers you are explaining at that exact moment.
Microsoft Excel
Microsoft Excel
I have never used Excel but with my major being Sports Management it is required to know how to use Excel. The two Excel SIMpaths broke it down step-by-step and I learned how to use it not just for calculations, but for organizing, analyzing, and visualizing data.

Key Features I Discovered:
Flash Fill : On Excel it can recognize patterns as you type and automatically fill out the rest of your sheet for you. For example, if you have a column of full names, you can type just the first name in the next column, and Excel will complete the rest of the list instantly.
Recommended PivotTables : On Excel PivotTables let you summarize hundreds of rows of messy data into a neat summary table in seconds. If you do not know how to build one from scratch, Excel can look at your data and create a few different layouts for you.
Text to Columns : On Excel If you paste a list where multiple pieces of data are squeezed into a single cell (like city and state separated by a comma), you can split them into clean, separate columns without typing any formulas.
