Lesson 1 Features of a word processor
Learners will start with an activity to help them understand that each software application has a different purpose: they will play a game of ‘Guess Who’, in which they will have to pick the most appropriate software. Next, learners will use word processing software to explore a range of formatting tools, and then they will be given a document to format using these tools. The lesson will finish with a multiple choice quiz.
