Description of course: Students will be instructed in the concepts of advanced word processing, advanced
presentation software, intermediate spreadsheet software, and beginning data base. Students will use the
Microsoft Office 2010 Suite. This course offers the opportunity for students to become Microsoft User
Specialists by testing at the Specialist and Expert levels for Word and Excel. The Comprehensive level for
PowerPoint and Outlook. The Specialist level for Access. These certification tests can be arranged by FertileBeltrami with the test costs being the responsibility of the student. Certification in all areas will earn the student
the certification of Master Microsoft User Specialist. This certification CAN BE transferred into the 4-year
liberal arts college systems. Students will create an electronic portfolio as their major project in this course.
Grading Scale: .
93-100% = A
90-92% = A87-89% = B+

Assessment: Students are also assessed following each chapter with a hands-on and theory test. Review
information for all exams is posted in the on-line lesson plans and on Moodle. A Pre-test and Post-test for each
software area is used to assess student achievement. The Post-test serves as a final test for each software
application.
Extra Credit: Extra credit is NOT an option in this course.
Late Work: Late work is NOT accepted unless the student has been absent. If
absent, the student will receive one extra day for each day missed to get the work
handed in. A broken computer is NOT an excuse for late work—the student’s
responsibility is to use a desktop machine, check out a “user machine” and get their
computer to the technician for repair. Students are expected to retrieve their
assignments from the lesson plans posted on the web or in the lesson plan directory.
Any missing work not turned in prior to testing will result in no credit.
Assignment Rules:
 Any work without a name is NOT accepted and put into the trash.
