MS VISIO2003 Introduction Week!!

Good Afternoon Business Technology Classes/Interns:

Welcome to the first day of MS Visio 2003.  This is an design platform that will allow you a use a great deal of powerful tools to create projects, layouts, and graphical designs.  It is a basic design program with a ton of bells and whistles and seamlessly interacts with the rest of the Microsoft Office Suite of programs we have already worked with.  I am including a link to a basic instruction site online from the University of Texas.  It is a handy site if you want to go through a complete tutorial.

Tomorrow we will be learning how to use this program to ultimately design and price a construction/remodeling project.  Today you will be able to get started on your own, looking around the program and checking out some of the templates.  Please go through the first couple of pages on the training site listed above to get started.  I would like you to use today's class to finish you COMICLIFE assignment first, then start into the Visio program.

This site is the official Microsoft link for educational shapes in Visio.  You can use any of them in your math or science classes to show angles, shapes, 3d shapes and a whole lot more!!

Thanks for such a good response from the MyWebspiration assignments and the Comic Book Pages!!
