This curriculum guide provides materials for a course in word processing. An instructor's guide sets forth prerequisites, equipment, use of the modules, comments on individual modules, a 12-item bibliography, answer keys, and a brief overview of each module. Six student modules follow. They are self-contained and require little effort on the instructor's part aside from scoring posttests and providing equipment. Each module consists of a cover sheet that details rationale, job skill, performance objective, and materials needed; pretest; information section; and activities. Posttests are intended to be kept by the instructor and administered to students when they are prepared to be tested on their mastery of the module contents. Module topics are as follows: introduction; editing; formatting; file management; printing and special features; and office procedures. (YLB)
