Word 97 is a full-semester textbook designed to teach the students the skills necessary to obtain an entry-level position as an Administrative Assistant in a business office. Beginning with basic editing and formatting of documents the instruction continues through the preparation of documents using desktop publishing. In addition, exercises designed to develope and reinforce English and communication skills have been added throughout the text.

Each of the 199 one-page exercises provides complete and uniform step-by-step instructions including up-to-date computer terminology and program specific vocabulary. Applications are simple enough that the students may complete more than one per class period with minimal guidance from the instructor.

An Instructor's Key is free upon request with a class-size order. The Key provides a detailed teaching guide for the first days of the course and a full guide to grading student work. A pretest, final exam, and unit tests (on disk) are also available upon request.
