This week you are
introduced to the
correspondence and
report templates
found in Word.
When working with
templates, keep the
following in mind:


It is better to first
select text that is to be
replaced and begin
typing, rather than
deleting the text.
Deleting the text can
also delete embedded
formatting.


Let’s discuss the advantages of using a template –
consistency in document appearance, savings in
time, ease of use and so on.
What about your employer? Do they create their
own templates? Or are you able to create your own?
◦ Ok. You may not be working at the moment. Please
provide your thoughts on the topic. ;-)


Please type at least 3-4 complete sentences.
If time permits, please respond to at least 2
classmates!
Effective Communication Guidelines (for the future)
 Make appropriate language choices that reflect your
knowledge and understanding of the topic.
 Draw from a large and flexible vocabulary.
 Apply conventions and rules of language
appropriately.
 Practice clear diction, including appropriate
pronunciation, clear articulation of consonant
sounds, and distinct enunciation of vowel sounds.
 Strive to eliminate distracting elements of dialect.
We will only quickly discuss the notes to study this
week. You are welcome to view the recording.
