Assignment in Emtech # 3

In learning advanced word processing skills, do you think it is important that you learn
about mail merge, table of contents, and citation & bibliography? Why or why not? Explain
each topic.

In my perspective, this lesson is absolutely important. First of all, I am the


type of person that likes shortcuts and finding ways that can make my life easier so
I think that learning advance word processing skills will help me a lot. This will
prevent me from typing for a very long time and stressing myself out throughout
the process. Also, I value my time so much and as much as possible, I want to
lessen my time consumption in doing school works, documents, or other file-
related works. The tactics that I learned about mail merge, table of contents, and
citation & bibliography will surely become my advantage in college or even when
I am already working in the hospital.

Each of the MS Word Processing application tool (mail merge, table of


contents, and citation & bibliography) has different functions and follows a step-by
-step process. First, the mail merge is used if you needed to send similar letters or
documents to different recipients. It will make your life easier because you do not
need to type the letter individually and send it to each recipient. It can also be used
if you are sending bulk mails to customers, subscribers, and general public. The
mail merge follows a step-by-step process. For the first step, click the Ribbon Tab
and then the Mailings. After that, you can now start the mail merge. Select your
desired document type and click next starting document. And then, you can select
your recipients, write your letter, edit the address block and greeting line, preview
your work, and save it. Printing the letter is optional.

Next, the table of contents is the organized listing of the topics that can be
found inside the book. This may contain a list of chapters at the beginning of book
or document. It can also be seen in the thesis, journal articles, research papers, etc.
Like mail merge, it also follows a step-by-step process. First, apply the heading.
Then you can select the heading 1 for the main topic and heading 2 for the sub-
topic. After that, click References then table of contents. You may change the style
of the TOB and modify it. Learning this process lessen your time consumption in
typing the table of contents one by one.
Lastly, the citation & bibliography is used to provide references and give
credits to the author. It helps the readers of the research to find where does the
information came from. This also prevents the tendency to plagiarize the work of
other people. This is important in writing papers especially in academic papers like
research, thesis, dissertation, etc. It also follows a step-by-step process. First,
choose your reference style. Mostly, students use the APA or American
Psychological Association as their reference style in research. Then, add citations
and resources. You will type the name of the author, title, publication and other
details. For the bibliography, you can click insert the biography and then it’s done.
