Application Software: Programs That Let You Work & Play

A computer without software is like a sandwich without filling!








Blog Posting Assignment:  Week of 5/8/12


What is a type of application software that you use regularly that is helpful for you personally or professionally?  Explain in detail the following:
  1.  Describe what the application software is and what its function is
  2. At least 3 advantages to using it 
  3. At least 1 reason why other students in our class should use it too.


Example:   The application software that I use regularly is Microsoft Word.  This is also a type of productivity software because it allows me to efficiently complete tasks that are useful at work and home.  I can create documents such as lesson plans, schedules, outlines, letters, reports, and much more.  This is a type of word processing software; which is considered the most widely used word processing software.  Three advantages to using Word are:  To create professional-looking documents, easily edit documents, and move information from one document to another easily.  I would recommend all students to use Microsoft Word when writing papers, letters, and reports for school and/or work!
