How to log into (link) and use the Capserve system. Remember that you pick up assignments from the “data-file” and submit them into your own folder in the “drop-off”. Also remember to add your name to the end of each of the assignment files you complete and put into your own folder.
Material for Office 2010:
-- go to the Myitlab testing site. (remember to use a PC with the MyItLab icon on it)
-- determine the chapter you wish to test on - e.g. Word 1
-- there will be two folders associated with that chapter – one for training and one for the test
-- complete the training module (scores for these do not count towards your course grades, they may be completed as many times as you wish and will be available throughout the semester)
-- complete the test (each may only be taken twice – any time you open it counts as a trial, must be completed by the assigned day)
You have two chances to take this test, if you are not satisfied with your first grade you may redo the training and/or take the test again directly.
