You are welcome to participate in any or all of the discussion questions. You will earn 1 extra point for each post, up to 10 points in each tech forum. Typically, each forum will be open for two weeks. No postings are allowed after a forum is closed. To participate, please go to Tools > Discussion Board. Be sure to read the Forum Participation Guidelines first and then review the materials (videos and articles) for Tech Forum.\n\nHelp center\nThere is a new content area \"Help Center\" on the blackboard that contains short videos/instructions for trouble-shooting and frequently asked questions. I will continue to add new videos and/or written instructions to the help center. If you have questions or encounter issues on the assignments, please refer to the help center first. If you can't find answers in the help center, please email me your questions with detailed information and if possible, include screenshots as well.\n\nLearning Unit 4:\n\nWe are starting Excel modules this week.
