  1. Tracking Changes in MS Word

  2. Track Changes • Allows you to keep track of the changes you make to a document • Extremely helpful when more than one person is giving input. • You can also make “hidden” comments to others • Will allow you to see who made the suggestions • Allows you to do all of this without actually changing the original document until you are ready to do so.

  3. Track Changes • Making insertions – Inserting some added text to a document • Making deletions – Removing text from a document • Adding a comment – Comments will not become part of the final document. They are the just the thoughts that you are sharing with the others working on the document

  4. Let’s give track changes a try…

  5. Work on Project 1 • Finish research • Write up your 3-5 paragraphs • Begin editing using track changes

  6. Synchronous & Asynchronous Communication

  7. Asynchronous Communication • Communication that does NOT occur in real time • Allows you to “say” things when you want to without necessarily having the other (s) “listening” at that moment. • Email is asynchronous, you have to wait for the recipient to read it

  8. Synchronous communication • Communicating in real-time • Once you “say” something the other(s) immediately “hear” you and can immediately respond • Instant messaging and chat are two examples of synchronous communication

  9. Instant Messaging • Instant Messaging (IM) is an Internet protocol that lets you send and receive instant messages • An instant message is an electronic notification of a new message that appears automatically on your computer screen • “Buddy” lists are used to limit outside IM access to your computer to just those who you wish to communicate with.

  10. Instant Messaging • Instant messaging had become so popular that the term IM has now entered the English language (both as a noun and a verb)

  11. Instant Messaging • There are four major brands of IM: • AOL Instant Messenger (AIM) has over 100 million users • AOL-owned ICQ has 68 million users • Microsoft’s MSN Messenger has 66 million users • Yahoo Messenger has 63 million users • As of now you can only IM those using the same brand of IM

  12. Instant Messaging • Like with email, you can use a web version of IM • This often has more limited features • You can also download IM programming (like Yahoo messenger) which you then use for IM • This give you added features

  13. Instant Messaging • Though historically text only, you can now use voice and/or video when using IM • Like with email, you are communicating with people, proper netiquette should be followed.
