Good Day,
It looks like people are mostly busy and relatively trouble-free today. No email, and just one question on the discussion board. Thus, I have just two quick notes for you today.
First, as people are getting more experimental with their resumes, they are getting frustrated with some of the limitations of MS-Word. If you're having trouble getting things to "line-up" in Word, take a look at the responses to Tara's question from last night on the discussion board. Remember that you have more options for controlling/organizing space in Word than you might be familiar with. There's a column feature that lets you create columns on your page; you can draw space for text or images on the page using the Text Box feature and other Word drawing tools; you can use the table feature to create an invisible grid over your entire page (make a table, then choose "none" for borders). For details on how to work with any of these features, check out Word help. You can also use a page layout program like MS-Publisher (or the free, open source Scribus) or move from Word to Powerpoint and use the drawing/text block tools there.
Second, if you're like me, your finished product for this assignment might tend to fall a little short of what you were aiming for. Something just would align. You couldn't get a color just right. You're not happy with a particular graphic, but it was the best you could find. That means your reflection will be MORE important for this assignment. Use the prompts in the Reflection section of the module, but also feel free here to discuss problems/solutions and things you'd change next time around.
As always, shout out loud on the discussion board if you have questions.
Enjoy the sunshine.
Julie
