WORD PROCESSORS & COMPUTER WORD PROCESSING, April 21: Leah Wolfeld and Celeste Lohr

The presentation about word processors and computer word processing by Celeste and Leah was pretty good. It was a fairly well put together project, but I believe that Leah asked a lot of the really good questions that the class was involved in. I really enjoyed the discussion about how using the computer to write differs so much from using pen and paper. I also thoroughly enjoyed the writing prompt in which we all had to switch our methods of organization and either type and outline on the computer or write one by hand. That was a fun experiment that really had the class thinking. The class did not necessarily think about the topic in which it had to create an outline for, but we all thought of how switching to either computer or writing by hand affected the way of execution. It was a good thing to have our methods tested and see the outcome of the change of regular process.
