We have strived to make this the most comprehensive and easy to understand Microsoft Office 2010 text available. Our primary objective in this text is to teach 21st century skills through a project-based, hands-on approach. To meet this objective, we correlated the text to the National Standards for Business Education and used our teaching experiences, as well as the feedback, comments, and suggestions from other experienced educators to determine how best to present application concepts. - Preface.
