Like the teacher in the article ' Teaching History with Technology', I have found that incorporating office software in the classroom has great value for teaching and learning. Some of the office software that are available for teaching and learning are Microsoft Word, Excel, Power Point and Publisher.
Microsoft Word can be used in the classroom to assist students with the writing and editing of their letters, essays etc, for keeping notes, to do worksheet and assessment exercises.
Students can use Excel for the drawing of their graphs, charts and tables to demonstrate data from their surveys for their research projects.
Social Studies students and teachers generally have to make presentations. Power Point can make presentations more manageable and appealing to the audience.
Publisher is another office software that students and teachers have at their disposal. This they can be used to create family tree, brochures, bookmarks and newsletters.
