It looks like it has changed from the original IT paper that Ashkir talked about. Now it is about a topic of your choosing with a Word brochure, Excel sheets, and a PowerPoint (no voiceover). It is available in this session.
I'm in this class right now, working on my third milestone. It is a very easy class workload-wise and a nice refresher of the Microsoft suite. You're right about the final, and the topic is anything you choose, but it does need approval. I'm doing mine on k-pop. The milestones are the building blocks of the final; getting topic approval and starting a brochure, starting an Excel workbook, and a few slides of a PowerPoint.
Thanks for your response! I think I will go for BUS 200 as I wouldn't mind brushing up on my Excel skills. It's also great that the milestones tie in with the final.
I think this class should be part of the general curriculum tbh. As someone who primarily uses a Mac and has been surviving with Google docs, it's nice to have the review on Microsoft office suite. I was in a musical theatre conservatory during my early 20's instead of university, and I've never had a real reason to use Excel, or even Powerpoint after highschool. I wish I had taken this sort of class at the very beginning of my degree journey.
