Description
Hey Friend,Are you looking to write your book, paper, report, or thesis using Microsoft Word? If so, this course is for YOU. Of course, you know your content very well, but believe me – you do not want to get lost in the many features of Microsoft Word. You want to learn which are the most important features and use them quickly, effectively, and master-fully. You want to know how to structure your content and edit it without getting lost in the numerous formatting options or figure, table, or equation numbering. Are you struggling with formatting your content and headings in Microsoft Word?Do you spend a lot of time and countless hours figuring out how to cite references using the specified citation styles?Do you get bogged down by formatting for headings and numbering?Do you get bogged down by placing your figures, tables, and equations correctly with proper captions and sequence numbers?Are you looking to spend time on your content rather than figuring out how to use Microsoft Word's many features?If you answered yes to any or all of these questions, then you have come to the right course for YOU. As a technical writer who has worked in the industry for over 15 years and as someone who has a love-hate relationship with Microsoft Office products including Microsoft Word for the many feature that help yet boggle users, I realized – this course is needed. Microsoft Word is not Notepad or Wordpad. As you write more detailed content, such as a book, novel, thesis, paper or report, you'll want to include headings, maybe some figures and tables, a bunch of formatting, and maybe even some references. Word offers you tools to do all of that. Yet, it is not a typesetting program. How do you use Word effectively so that you can use the most important features for your documents quickly? In this course, I share a bunch of strategies to structure your book, novel, thesis, paper or report. I talk about the importance of using the most important features of Word, such as Styles and Multilevel lists. From page layout to headings to numbering, I've got you covered. I also cover how to include figures, tables, and equations with proper numbering and referencing. Of course, I'll share how to quickly generate a Table of Contents – with 1 click. If you're writing a serious document, you will want to include references to your sources. I cover how to insert and cite references using both Microsoft Word's built-in tools and a free citation manager called Zotero.If you are struggling with any specific feature in Microsoft Word, then just let me know in the Q&A and I'll update the course with additional videos just for YOU.I  want you to spend more time focusing on YOUR content., so I've tried my best to keep this course to about 2 hours. Join me as we tackle this journey together. Cheers,Prasad
