Students learn how to apply keyboard shortcut skills learned using Microsoft Word to working with their Web browsers. In the process, students learn about plagiarism and create a document outlining common problems with plagiarism and methods for avoiding them.
Application Exercises give students an opportunity to apply concepts they have learned in previous instruction. Work completed by a student will be graded through a variety of scoring options including participation and teacher assessment via rubric to provide flexibility with the type of grade sent to the Learning Management System (LMS) gradebook. Student work may include open-ended questions, correct/incorrect responses, a final product and/or self-assessment.
