I am happy to report that I finished Phase 1 of my IS101 course even earlier than I planned. However, I noticed that I was rushing just to get it done, so I didn't feel very connected to what I was learning. In the future, I want to change my approach by being more involved in the lessons. My goal is to slow down and really understand the information instead of just checking items off my to-do list.
One of the most helpful parts of the course so far was the lesson "4.5.3 Tab Stops." To be honest, this lesson changed everything for me. In the past, whenever I wanted to align text in different columns, I would create a Table and then hide the borders. It took a long time and was hard to change later. Now that I understand how to use Tab Stops, I can align my text perfectly with just one click. It makes my documents look much cleaner and more professional.
The lesson on "4.5.3 Tab Stops" was a total gamechanger for me. I used to waste a lot of time building tables just to align my text, but now I know how to do it correctly and much faster using tabs. This practice is actually how I passed my MO-110 Word certification exam. Since I stayed consistent and completed all my regular assignments on time, I was already prepared for the test and didn't need any last-minute studying.

I’m Josias, a student of the Introduction to Information Systems class with Albert Wu as my instructor. On January 18, I received a text message from Albert Wu asking if I was available for our WebEx meeting. I’m going to be honest, I didn’t read his introduction email completely. This message was a surprise to me. I thought it was a scam, so I rechecked the email and then accepted it. It was nice for me to engage with the students before the first day of class.
1.5.4 Copyright Facts - Fair Use of copyrighted documents for educational purposes
When pursuing higher education, you’ll be asked to find information that isn’t freely accessible. While investigating specific and less popular topics, I encountered only fragments of a book requiring payment to access the full information. I do not want to pay just to check if their information will be useful; on the other hand, the information will only be used for an assignment. During my investigation, I encountered an almost complete repository of worldwide books that I use to educate myself. Obviously, they are illegal to print and sell, but if you need a book for any class, I can provide it to you.
