ChapterNotesThere is a chapter notes document in your downloaded book files for Office1, Office2, HTML, Dreamweaver, and Flash that you may use. If you are not in one of these classes you will have to create your own chapter notes.

For all others classes 10 items per chapter Why am I doing this? Do you realize why you take notes in class or the teacher asks you to summarize what you are reading? As teachers we're taught that there are different ways of knowing something. When you are reading, you can sound out letters and say words. Or, in computer books you can follow steps and create a document. But did you really learn what the text was saying? One of the ways to improve your learning is to be able to summarize what you are reading. This is the purpose of the Chapter Notes assignment. I don't want you to spend a long time with the summary, just give me a couple words and where you found the information. So if the section in the book talks about saving a file, all I need you to type are the menu and submenu name -- Office Button, Save or File, Save. Your ability to take a large chunk of text or lecture and summarize it with a few words is an important skill that will help you learn new things for your entire life.
