semester 1 ICT

Semester 1 ICT

This semester in ICT we learned excel, publisher, and word. I have no proof of my publisher or excel work because Shikarn and Kadyn kept turning off my computer. but I have proof of my word work. I moved from cooking in term two. I thought excel was cool because it has stuff like auto sum and stuff so it's like a more complex and bigger calculator. we learned how to type in word, and we learned how to use publisher in publisher.
