Bus 120 Business Computer Applications Reflection

Adams Outcomes Area 2 - Intellectual and Practical Skills - Written and Oral Communication

​

Prior Knowledge - How much did you know about computer applications (Word Processing, Spreadsheets, Presentation Tools, and Databases before this class? 

Over the past few years I have used these applications but really have struggle with using them because I am so used to using google applications all of my life. Being inside this class has helped me have better knowledge of knowing how to use these applications. Not only has it given me a better knowledge, I now find it easier and more efficient to use these applications 

​

Key Takeaways - What is/are something/s that you learned about these applications that you think increases your communication skills?

What I've learned is different ways of how to break down these applications by going through each assignment step by step to make sure everything is correct. Excel was probably the application I most struggled with but going through the assignment I now have a better understanding of navigating what I am doing and also learned shortcuts to make my work easier.

Future Use - How do you see yourself using these applications in your future as a student and a professional.

I see myself using these applications for my everyday life when using a dell or desktop computer that allows me access to them. Using excel does math for you so if I ever wanted to budget , I know I can make a spreadsheet to be organized with money. Other applications have given me the opportunity for different ways I can do work for myself for an example instead of using google slides I can now use Power point which I feel like is easier to use.
