Online training resources for MS Word?

[Geoff Hart <ghart -at- videotron -dot- ca>]

John Hedtke wondered: <<Can anyone provide a link to training  
resources for MS Word?  I've a bunch of writing students, most of  
whom need to improve their basic Word skills, but I've not been able  
to find a lot of data to point them to.  Any suggestions?>>

You can probably find better resources, but you won't find any that  
are cheaper (errr... less expensive) than Microsoft's own resources:
For Windows: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/training/default.aspx
For Mac: http://www.microsoft.com/mac/help.mspx

They may also be interested in the Word 2003 to 2007 "where the hell  
did everything go?" guide*:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/word/HA100744321033.aspx? 
pid=CH100487431033
* Or search for "Interactive: Word 2003 to Word 2007 command  
reference guide"

You can also search their site for the specific application (e.g.,  
Word 2003, Excel 2007) plus the word "training" and you should  
eventually get to product-specific pages.

Of course, if you're teaching them editing, they might also be  
interested in my book (see below). I offer free evaluation copies to  
teachers, and significant discounts to students. Contact me privately  
if you're interested.
