Working in Microsoft Word as often as I do I thought I had a pretty good idea of the capabilities. This reading just through the first few chapters has proven me wrong. I am looking forward to opening up to learning things I have clearly overlooked. I think people often get comfortable in what they know, as I have, and get used to doing things the way they have learned or been shown often disregarding the fact that there might be a better or faster way. Then there is habit once learning a new capability being able to apply it and become proficient in using it. One of the capabilities I was surprised to learn and never knew was about the navigation controls. I honestly never knew you could use Ctrl+ and the arrows to maneuver around, one word to the left or right or up and down one paragraph. This will really help at work when going through customer documents. I think about how many times I have used the arrow keys to go up and down a page or moving around one letter at a time. Inserting a cover page is something else I have learned in the reading. Almost embarrassing to admit I would just go to the beginning of my document and shift everything down with the Enter key. This will be a very effective tool for me to use in the professional capacity as well as personal in the future. One other thing I learned and found to be helpful in the reading was creating headers with the text and the page number. I never knew about the Link to Previous button. Now I need to practice this as this is a huge frustration for me. I can never seem to get the header text in along with the page number, when doing this I find the page numbers staying the

    Gwen Harwood’s work frequently focuses on woman being demoralised by society’s practices that reduce her to a lesser being. A common worldwide value that Harwood rejects as the normality in life with her poems. Harwood battles against the traditions that she believes support this downgrading by continually returning to the issue. Due to Harwood’s existence in a time where women of Australia still fought to vote and for a pay check to match a man’s, Harwood too displays her support. “The Lions Bride” is centred on the subject of marriage and entails the ugliness of the situations that are specific to women. This remains relevant to the modern world because of the ongoing struggle for equality. By using a wedding as a platform to highlight societies imposed traditions on females she seeks to shock the conventional expectations by demonising the widely romantisied event. Harwood extends this and questions treatment of women in the world before any vows are made.…

    I am more than happy to learn in the work place because I value the process of continuous improvement. As long as I was instructed to handle something new in my previous job, I felt excited and satisfied. The double-loop learning process benefits me from applying new knowledge and techniques to work-related areas and self-reflecting the aspects that I can improve. In addition, I am actively pursuing academic success outside work place. For example, I am the youngest CMA candidate in my CMA session.…
