What you will learn This worksheet will teach you about using nested tables and picture objects, borders and shading and auto formatting options.
What you will do You will create an advertisement for a CRAPS TABLE to go in a magazine, which contains a picture, a nested table and some text. You will format the appearance of the advert using words table formatting features to make the table look attractive and change the table options to fit the magazine’s constraints.
A problem scenario
A solution
A proprietor of a small company wants a professional looking advertisement. They have used Microsoft Word for many years but haven’t had much need to dabble with a desktop publishing program such as Publisher.
Table in word can be used to divide the page up into easily manageable cells which can be merged and split, then formatted separately. This allows Word to perform many functions that a dedicated desktop publishing package can.
Click, Do & Learn – Creating the advert 1. Open a New document from the File menu. 2. Create a 2×2 table using the Insert Table button on the standard toolbar. 3. Ask your teacher for a picture of the craps table and insert this into the top-left cell. 4. Add a note underneath the picture specifying that the table shown is actual size. 5. Format the note as small as possible whilst still just being readable – standard small-print practice. 6. In the upper-right cell, create some text selling the table to potential punters. It should include a title, text and address to send payment to. 7. Add some more useless small print to the lower-left cell. 8. Insert a 4×2 table in the lower-right cell. 9. Merge the top two cells of the nested table and label it “Dimensions”. 10. Inset appropriate length, width and height measurements into the table.
How do pictures work? A picture is inserted into a word document as a frame. Frames are inserted into text and move like it was a text object. They can be changed to act independently from the text by choosing a Layout option in the Format, Picture dialog box.
What is a nested table? A table within a table is called a nested table. They allows you to use a master table to lay out the document and use a table within this for displaying data.
Click, Do & Learn – Formatting the advert 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16.
17. 18. 19. 20.
Select the nested table and select Table AutoFormat from the Table menu. Browse the pre-defined styles in the resulting dialogue box, select one that you like, and click Apply. Select the main table using the tab and choose Borders and Shading from the Format menu. Choose a double line from the Style box and apply it as a Grid. Right click on the table while it is still all selected and using the Cell Alignment menu, centre the cells both horizontally and vertically. Deselect the table and hover your cursor over the bottom left corner of the upper right cell, your pointer should change to a little arrow ( ). Click to select the cell, then hold the control key and select the lower left cell in the same way. Click on the Shading tab in the Borders and Shading options under the Format menu and make the cells a pale colour. Select the table and choose Table Properties from the Table menu. In the Table tab, check the preferred width box and select 18cm. Go to the Row section and make row 1 exactly 10cm high, and row 2 exactly 5cm.

Worksheet 2 - Formulae in Tables What you will learn
What you will do
This worksheet will teach you to create dependant data in a table by using formulae. To do this you will learn how to assign a shortcut key to a Word function and how to use fonts and table formatting.
You will create a menu for James’ Juicy Jungle Burgers. Burgers You will make the table act as a simple spreadsheet through the use of Words table and formulae functions.
A problem scenario
A solution
James gets his beef from a supplier whose prices vary depending on the availability of the meat he gets. James passes this cost on to his customers but doesn’t like having to recalculate the prices of his menu.
Word includes a Formula function so it can now manipulate the data it displays. This can be used to automatically recalculate the rest of the menu when James’ burger prices change.
Click, Do & Learn – Creating the table 1. 2. 3. 4.
Insert a 6×5 table using the table button. Merge the top row and add the title “James’ Juicy Jungle Burgers”. Add the burger names to in the first column and meal options in the first row. Format the table using fonts, borders and shading to make the table look more like a menu.
James’ Juicy Jungle Burgers Solo + Drink + Fries £ 1.00 £ 1.80 £ 1.90 Beef Burger £ 1.50 £ 2.30 £ 2.40 Cheese Burger £ 1.50 £ 2.30 £ 2.40 Chicken Burger £ 2.00 £ 2.80 £ 2.90 Jungle Burger
Click, Do & Learn – Inserting the Formulae 5. In the first row of the solo column, press Ctrl+F to insert a formula. 6. In the Formula box, type “=1”. 7. In the Number Format box select the £#,##0.00;(£#,##0.00) option. 8. Click OK. This should insert a formula field into the table which should display the number with a leading pound sign and two decimal places of precision. 9. Complete the rest of the column in this way.
Meal Deal Meal Deal £ 2.43 £ 2.88 £ 2.88 £ 3.33
Burger, Drink & Fries
10% OFF!
Tip – Save time by assigning a shortcut key Open a new file. Select customise from the tools menu. Click on the keyboard button. Select the document that you just created in the Save changes in box. Select All Commands in the Categories box Select TableFormula in the Commands box. In the Press new shortcut key box, hold the Ctrl key down and press F. Click on the Assign button. Close both dialogue boxes. The TableFormula command is now assigned the Ctrl+F keystroke.
In this example, I have chosen for a drink to cost 80p and fries to cost 90p. The Meal Deal option contains a burger, fries, and drink, all with 10% off. The table below shows the formulas to be inserted. Insert these into the menu using the Formula command, remembering to format the numbers correctly. 10. Select the cell containing the James’ Juicy Jungle Burgers price of a Beef Burger and Solo + Drink + Fries press Ctrl+F. Beef Burger =1 =b3+0.8 =b3+0.9 11. Change the price of the burger Cheese Burger =1.5 =b4+0.8 =b4+0.9 to £2. Chicken Burger =1.5 =b5+0.8 =b5+0.9 12. Select the whole table and Jungle Burger =2 =b6+0.8 =b6+0.9 press F9. You should notice that the prices in the beef burger row update to accommodate its new price. 13. Save the file according to your teachers instructions as you are going to need it later.

Worksheet 7 - Web Page Creation What you will learn
What you will do
This worksheet will teach you about creating web pages, frames, and inserting hyperlinks and pictures.
You will use Word to generate a basic WEBSITE about yourself which can be placed on your school intranet or posted on the internet.
Click, Do & Learn – Creating a Web page 1. Open a new document by selecting New from the File menu. 2. Select Web page. Word will bring up a blank page and open the Web and Web Tools toolbar.
Frames 3. Open the Frames toolbar. This will allow you to divide your page up.
4. Insert a new frame on the left and another at the top. 5. Click your cursor onto the left hand frame and click on the
If you have browsed the web before then you may have noticed that you can always see a fixed set of links to navigate around a website, usually to the top or left of the main screen where the pages are displayed. This is accomplished by using frames, which act as separate, distinct section within of the website.
Frame Properties button: . 6. Change the frame width to 3cm so that there is more room to display the main page. 7. Alter the frame borders to make them visible and a complementary colour to the rest of your website in the Borders tab. 8. All the usual features of Word are available when creating websites, so we can put them to good use. Use WordArt to create a title in the left hand frame – you will need to use one of the vertical options. 9. In the top frame, write a quick profile of yourself: for instance, Name, Age and anything else you like. Resize the frame to a sensible height. 10. Choose a couple of your hobbies or interests, and in the big frame write a short paragraph about each.
You now have a very basic website, but there are lots of things you can do to make it more interesting. Images, sounds, music and movies add interest for the user, but be careful! They are relatively large data objects and they can dramatically reduce the speed that people can access your website, possibly making it more hassle than fun.
Click, Do & Learn – Pictures 11. Insert a picture to illustrate each of your ‘Hobbies’ paragraphs by selecting Picture from the Insert menu. 12. Select either Clip Art – this is small in size and large in variety, From file – inserts a picture that you have created or downloaded, or From Scanner or Camera – which allows you to connect to external hardware to input your picture. If your school has a digital camera then you could have a snap shot of yourself taken and put in your ‘Profile’ section.
Word 2003, Workbook 2
Hulme Hall Grammar School
Page 10 of 23
Click, Do & Learn – Inserting Hyperlinks 13. Give each of your ‘Hobbies’ paragraphs a title. 14. Select the first title and select Hyperlink from the Insert menu. You should see this dialog box: 15. Type the address of a website that gives more information on your hobby in the Address box. 16. Hold down the control key and click on the link to test it. To activate hyperlinks, you need to hold the control key down first. This stops you from accidentally activating links during editing.
Remember that this is only a guideline to creating a webpage. Be creative and have fun!
Optional Extension – Possibilities for the Future You should now have a web page that tells the world about you. Ask your teacher if it is possible to publish them on the school intranet. You can add to and update the webpage as you find more content for it, such as new pictures or stories, and then upload your updated website over the old one. If you ever have chance to learn HTML, Hypertext Mark-up Language, then you can edit the source code for the webpage. This gives you much more control over how things are displayed and interact with the user.

Worksheet 8 - Advanced Formatting What you will learn This worksheet will teach you about styles, paragraphs, and tables of contents.
What you will do You will take an unformatted piece of work about CLIMATE CHANGE and use Word’s presentation, formatting and reference tools to produce a professional document.
A problem scenario
A solution
Bob is an environmentalist who uses Word to produce his documents, many of which are very similar in appearance. He want to produce documents that have the maximum possible impact without spending hours on formatting them. He distributes documents to his colleagues for reference, some of whom complain that they cannot quickly find what they are looking for.
Word includes many easy to use formatting tools, including styles. If Bob spends a little time on setting up standard styles in his document template then he can give much more impact to his content, produce professional looking documents quicker and can insert tables of contents to aid quick navigation of the documents.
Styles A style is a set of formatting characteristics, such as font, size and colour of text, that are grouped together and named. Changing the characteristics of a style affects all instances of it in a document, so you can format and reformat documents quickly and easily.
Styles Task Pane
Style selection box
Click, Do & Learn – Assigning Styles To set up the basic structure of the document, you need to assign styles to the text. This is easily done using the style selection box on the formatting toolbar. All the text in the document is set as the Normal style, this style is defined in the document template, Normal.dot, and it’s default settings are Times New Roman, 12pt. 1. Scroll down until you reach the text “COMPUTER MYTHS AND FACTS”. 2. Make this section title Heading 1 style by placing your cursor at the start of the line, clicking on the Styles and Formatting button: , and click on Heading 1. 3. Make other text in capital letters in the document (“CLIMATE CHANGE FACTS” and “BE A CLIMATE HERO”) Heading 1 also. 4. Make all the “Myth…” sentences and the “Enable The Power Management Feature On Your Computer” sentences Heading 2. 5. The last headings, that are to be made Heading 3, are the “Fact”, “Action”, “Savings” and “Security Benefit” sections and all the subtitles in the “BE A CLIMATE HERO” section.
Click, Do & Learn – Adjusting the styles 6. Click on the button on the formatting toolbar to open the Styles and Formatting Task Pane. This allows you to view and change all the styles available to you. At the moment there are the default styles, three headings and normal. 7. Select Formatting in Use from the Show box to display only the styles used in the document. 8. Right click on Heading 1 and select Modify from the resulting menu. 9. To make for more impact, change the characteristics of the font by selecting Font from the menu that appears from the Format button. 10. Set the font as Century Gothic, 16pt and Bold.

Paragraphs To ensure the layout looks good, we can change the Paragraph formatting options, which include line and paragraph spacing, indents, justification and breaks. 11. In the Line and Page breaks section of the Paragraph formatting options in the Format menu, enable the Keep with next and Page break before options. 12. To visually split up the sections, create 1.5pt a line under all of the section headings using the Border options in the Format menu. The text under the sample textbox is a brief summery of the style. For Heading 1 it should now read:
13. Similarly, using the options in the Format menu, make headings 2 and 3 read as follows:
Heading 2:
Heading 3:
Table of Contents You can add a table of contents to your document to give the reader an idea of what the document contains. Tables of contents are automatically generated in Word based on the document styles.
Click, Do & Learn – Adding References 14. Select Index and Tables in the Reference section if the Insert menu. 15. Click the Table of Contents tab. 16.

Worksheet 9 - Objects What you will learn This worksheet will teach you about objects in Microsoft Word, including tables, pictures, textboxes, files and equations.
What you will do You will be provided with the text and pictures that compose the slide from the LEGO ROBOT DESIGN STUDIO, from which you will put together the completed document.
A problem scenario
A solution
A student needs to bring together information from a variety of different sources to create a poster to present their project at a schools technology open day.
Create the poster using a collection of Microsoft Word’s objects allow content from external sources to be inserted and manipulated within a Word documents.
Objects Objects in Word include tables, charts, graphics, equations or any other form of information that is created outside the word page it is intended for. They come in two flavours, linked and embedded. Linked objects maintain a link back to their source file so changes in source or destination files affect the other. An example is a section if an excel worksheet used in a word document to summarise some data that is linked back to the excel source document so that changes to the data are automatically updated in the summery in the word document. A embedded document is a non-linked document – once it is inserted then it is independent of changes made to its source file.
The poster contains pictures, some equations and a graph which was generated in Microsoft Excel. The easiest way to create a document like this is to generate the objects separately and then cut and paste them into a master document. This gives greater control over the final document layout and produces a more polished document. The picture, text and graph is available from your teacher.
The technology you have been waiting for has finally arrived.
Automatic Transmission A new step in LEGO innovations
An automatic transmission for your LEGO that actually works! The in’s and out’s to our Design The primary goal of this vehicle was to simulate and automatic transmission. We used two gear ratios, one set for low torque/high speed and one for high torque/low speed in order to simulate how cars require inertia in order to use a higher speed gear. We devised a system to change gears by altering the automatic part of the transmission by attaching a light sensor to a spinning arm which is connected to the drive train. If the revolutions per minute are at different levels, the program changes gears. If the car goes up a hill and the rpm’s decrease, the motor shifts down in order to generate more torque. Although we would like to disclose all methods used to design this car, the FBI is afraid that this technology might be released to the Russians, creating worldwide chaos! Hence, it is on a need to know basis.

Worksheet 10 - Document Management What you will learn This worksheet will teach you about creating multiple versions of a document, comparing and merging documents together and reviewing changes to a document.
What you will do You will be using different versions of worksheet 10.doc about 'MUSICAL NOSTALGIA'. This looks at an 'oldies' and a 'youngies' version of a musical nostalgia document. You will be using the special features of Word to merge these documents together.
A problem scenario
A solution
Jack and Jill are working on a document 'X'. Let’s say Jill is in charge of document 'X'. Jill wants Jack to work on the document 'X' making appropriate changes. Jack works on the document, returning it with the improvements. Jill wants to approve the changes made.
Would be to use the features 'versions', and 'merge' from Word, rejecting and accepting changes as appropriate.
The problem is more difficult with multiple people trying to work on the same project in different locations, but these can be overcome using the same features of Word.
What is a version? A version is a snapshot of the document at an instance in time. A version contains information about the changes made to a document since the last version was saved. Multiple versions of a document can exist so that its history can be seen by browsing the versions. Versions use disk space efficiently as only the changes relative to the previous version are saved.
Click, Do & Learn – Compare and Merge 1. 2. 3. 4.
Open the file Worksheet 10.doc. Select Versions from the File menu, and double-click on the Kids updated version of the document. Click Compare and Merge from the Tools menu. Select Worksheet 10.doc and click Merge
What does merge do? Merging one document into another shows the changes made between them. Deletions and formatting is shown down the side of the page, while each insertion is highlighted in red and underlined.

Mathematical Constants (Use Superscript Templates) e jπ = −1 This beautiful equation connects three major constants of mathematics, Euler's Number e, the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter, pi, and the square root of -1, i.e., i.
The definition of e (Use Subscript and Superscript Templates, Fraction Templates and Fence Templates) n 1 e = lim1 + n →∞ n One way of defining Euler's number e is by this formula. It can be interpreted as saying that if you collect 100 percent interest annually and compound continuously then you multiply your capital with e every year. The fundamental theorem of Calculus (Use Integral Templates, Fence Templates and Fraction Templates) d x f ( s )ds = ∫ f ( x) dx ∫a This formula expresses the fact that differentiation and integration are inverse operations of each other.
Taylor Series (Use Summation Templates, Superscript Templates, Fraction Templates and Fence Templates) ∞ f ( i ) ( 0) i f ( x) = ∑ x i! i=0 This formula shows how to express an analytic function in terms of its derivatives.
The Triangle Inequality (Use Fence Templates and Relational Symbols) x+ y ≤ x + y Let x and y be vectors that form two sides of a triangle whose third side is x+y. The expression ||x|| denotes the length of a vector x. The triangle inequality expresses the fact that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle cannot be less than the length of the third side. It is used ubiquitously throughout mathematics.
Energy, Mass and the Speed of Light (Use Superscript Templates) E = mc 2 Einstein's famous equations says that mass m is equivalent to energy E, and the amount of energy contained in a piece of mass is equal to the mass multiplied with the square of the speed of light, c. Without the fact described by this equation we wouldn't be around since the energy we obtain from the Sun is generated by converting mass to energy in the process of nuclear fusion.
Gravity (Use Subscript and Superscript Template and Fraction Templates) Gm1 m 2 F= d2 If you have two objects of mass m 1 and m 2 at a distance d, then these two objects will attract each other with a force F given in this formula. G is the gravitational constant. It equals approximately 6.67*10-11Nm2kg-2. This formula determines the destiny of our Universe (i.e., whether it will expand forever or whether it will ultimately collapse in a Big Crunch after having originated in the Big Bang).
