SECTION A: Practical Assignment on Application Software
Assignment Title: Exploring Application Software
Instructions:
1. Introduction: Begin by reviewing what you've learned about application software in class. Explain that this assignment will give them hands-on experience with various types of application software.
2. Assignment Components:
a. Word Processing (10 points): Create a document using word processing software (e.g., Microsoft Word or Google Docs). The document should contain:
o Your name and class details at the top.
o A brief description (minimum of 100 words) of your favorite hobby or activity.
o A list of at least three formatting features used in the document (e.g., bold text, italicized text, bullet points, headings).

3. Submission: Compile all your work into a folder or document and submit it to your computer science teacher on or before the specified deadline.
4. Grading: Your assignment will be graded based on the completion of each component (word processing, spreadsheet, presentation, web browsing), correct usage of software features, and the quality of your work.
Additional Notes:
Ensure that your work is neat and well-organized.
Save your files with appropriate names (e.g., "MyHobbyDocument.docx," "SpreadsheetAssignment.xlsx," "FamousScientistPresentation.pptx").
Don't forget to proofread your writing for spelling and grammar errors.
Ask your teacher for help if you encounter any difficulties with the software.
