Business Plan Programs Microsoft
I need help planning some computer skill lessons?
I teach an after school program about computers to a group of high school students. My students will be getting an introduction to Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, HTML, and a unit titled “Digital Lifestyles.”
My plan is to have them work on creating their own businesses and to use the above applications to generate documents for their business. Their “grade” for participating in my class will be based on their ability to use their computers to generate the needed documents for a final presentation showing off their business ideas.
I need some ideas for things they can create that will have business theme and give them a chance to use their computers. Any ideas, suggestions, lessons would be a big help.
like your idea
I not sure what “Digital Lifestyles” unit would cover.
Some “deliverables” that I might expect for a business might include
project proposal or business plan, this might included
1. description of the project
2. resume or job description
3. cost projections or cost analysis
4. schedule
Proposal might be a mixture of Word and Excel, but mostly Word.
For Excel, you could provide the formulas and show them the format of a business income statement or balance sheet, provide them the raw data, could also have them create financial ratios and do what/if analysis
Powerpoint could be used for progress presentation (midterm and final). You have them update their cost/schedule as the project progress.
you could have them create a company website and have them convert at least some of above documents to web pages. cross-referencing the documents.
