Information 6.1
Inserting Picture or Clip Art
Pictures and clip art can be inserted or copied into a document from many
different sources, including those downloaded from a clip art Web site provider, copied
from a Web page, or inserted from a folder where you save pictures.
You can also change how a picture or clip art is positioned with text within a
document by using the Position and Wrap Text commands.
TIP: To insert a picture from your scanner or camera, use the

software that came with your scanner or camera to transfer the
picture to your computer. Save the picture, and then insert it by
following the instructions for inserting a picture from a file.
Insert Clip Art
1. On the Insert tab, in the Illustrations group, click Clip Art.
NOTE: Some commands shown are not available in Word Starter.
2. In the Clip Art task pane, in the Search for text box, type a word or phrase that
describes the clip art that you want, or type in all or some of the file name of the
clip art.
3. To modify your search, do one or both of the following:
To expand your search to include clip art on the Web, click the Include
Office.com content checkbox.
To limit the search results to a specific media type, click the arrow in the
Results should be box and select the check box next to Illustrations,
Photographs, Videos, or Audio.
4. Click Go.
5. In the list of results, click the clip art to insert it.

To resize clip art, select the clip art you've inserted in the document. To
increase or decrease the size in one or more directions, drag a sizing handle away
from or toward the center, while you do one of the following:

Information Sheet
To keep the center of an object in the same location, press and hold CTRL
while you drag the sizing handle.
To maintain the object's proportions, press and hold SHIFT while you drag the
sizing handle.
To both maintain the object's proportions and keep its center in the same
location, press and hold both CTRL and SHIFT while you drag the sizing
handle.
Insert a picture from a file
To insert a picture from your scanner or camera, use the software that came with
your scanner or camera to transfer the picture to your computer. Save the picture, and
then insert it by following these steps.
1. Click where you want to insert the picture in your document.
2. On the Insert tab, in the Illustrations group, click Picture.
3. Locate the picture that you want to insert. For example, you might have a picture
file located in My Documents.
4. Double-click the picture that you want to insert.
By default, Microsoft Word embeds (embed: To insert information created in

one program, such as a chart or an equation, into another program. After the
object is embedded, the information becomes part of the document. Any changes
you make to the object are reflected in the document.) pictures in a document. You
can reduce the size of a file by linking (link: Used to insert a copy of information
created in one program into a Microsoft Word document while maintaining a
connection between the two files. When the information changes in the source file,
the changes are reflected in the destination document.) to a picture. In the Insert
Picture dialog box, click the arrow next to Insert, and then click Link to File.
To resize a picture, select the picture you've inserted in the document. To

increase or decrease the size in one or more directions, drag a sizing handle away
from or toward the center, while you do one of the following:
To keep the center of an object in the same location, press and hold CTRL
while you drag the sizing handle.
To maintain the object's proportions, press and hold SHIFT while you drag the
sizing handle.
`
Information Sheet
To both maintain the object's proportions and keep its center in the same
location, press and hold both CTRL and SHIFT while you drag the sizing
handle.
Insert a picture from a Web page
1. Open the document.
2. From the Web page, drag the picture that you want into the Word document.
Make sure the picture that you choose is not a link to another Web page. If you
drag a picture that is linked, it will be inserted in your document as a link instead of an
image.
Insert a picture that includes a hyperlink from a Web page
1. Open the Word document.
2. On the Web page, right-click the picture you want, and then click Copy.
3. In the Word document, right-click where you want to insert the picture, and then
click Paste.
Insert Screenshot
The screenshot tool in Microsoft Word 2010 allows you to capture an image of a
particular screen and then insert it into your document. Note that this facility will not be
available to you if you are working on a document in compatibility mode, as it is new to
Word 2010.
Inserting Already Existing Screenshots
If you are working on a Word 2010 document, click Insert > Illustrations >
Screenshot. A list of available screenshots is displayed in a gallery. This gallery consists of
a selection of the last screenshots taken by you.
`
Information Sheet
Click on a screenshot to insert it into your document. Because the image is then
selected, the Picture Tools contextual tab is displayed to enable you to perform picture
related tasks.
If you havent yet taken the screenshot you need, follow these steps.
Taking a Screenshot In Word 2010
To take a new screenshot and insert it into your Word 2010 document, you first
need to go to the screen you want to capture and then press the print screen button on
your keyboard. If you then go back to your Word document and click Insert > Illustrations
> Screenshot, the screenshot will appear in the gallery in the first position. Click on it to
insert it.
Taking A Screen Clipping In Word 2010
This is the good bit. If you only need to insert a portion of your screenshot and not
the whole thing, click Insert > Illustrations > Screenshot > Screen Clipping. The last
screen you displayed is redisplayed (but faded) with some crosshairs for you to drag a
selection. The area of the screen you select with the crosshairs is cut and pasted into
your Word document. Again, the Picture Tools tab is displayed to help you manipulate
your new image.
To perform this kind of cropping task, ordinarily you would have to import your
screenshot into an image editor like Photoshop or Fireworks and then export the finished
article for use in your document. Now, however, the screen clipping function makes those
extra steps redundant and speeds up your workflow. A point to note is that you cant
adjust your selection, so if you get it wrong you must undo the action and try again.
Keep a picture next to the text that goes with it or at a spot on the page
An inline picture keeps its position relative to a portion of the text. Pictures are
inserted as inline pictures by default in Word.
A floating picture keeps its position relative to the page, and floats in that position
as text flows around it. For example, if you position the picture halfway down on the left
side of the page, and then you add two paragraphs at the top of the page, the picture will
stay halfway down on the left side of the page.
To make sure that the picture stays with text that references it for example, a
description above the picture, position the picture as an inline picture. If you add two
paragraphs above the description, the picture will move down the page together with the
description.
1. If the picture is not on a drawing canvas, select the picture. If the picture is on a
drawing canvas, select the canvas.
`
Information Sheet
2. Under Picture Tools, on the Format tab, in the Arrange group, click Position.
If you don't see Position, click Arrange, and then click Position.
3. Do one of the following:
To change an inline picture to a floating picture, select any one of the With
Text Wrapping page position options.
To change a floating picture to an inline picture, select In Line with Text.
Keep a picture with a callout or a text box
To keep a callout or text box with a picture, you must make the picture and the
text box or shape floating, and group the picture with the callout or other shape.

INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATIONS TECHNOLOGY
Information and communications technology is

dramatically and rapidly transforming secondary
and post-secondary education in developed
nations to a degree scarcely imaginable only one
generation ago. High schools, colleges, vocational
schools, universities, and advanced research
Computer peripherals institutions are being profoundly affected, at all
levels and in myriad respects.
In particular, ICT has affected distance learning (DL) or distance education

(DE), allowing school calendars to be designed to accommodate the needs of
individual students on one hand and faculty on the other, thus moving many
elements of the educational process into the virtual world. This hugely
increases the market of potential learners. Such technology-mediated
instruction can be accessed 24 hours a day, 7
days a week from almost any location, opening
opportunities for working students, parents of
young children, and those with disabilities to
reach their educational goals. Moore (2001)
relates that the advent of interactive media and
flexible scheduling has brought forth a
new generation of distance faculty, who are now
able to teach while pursuing other interests.
Moore (2001) and Brown (1999) report that reaching a wider audience is a
strong motivator for translating coursework into electronic formats.
Faculties, often apprehensive that a class may be cancelled due to lack of
enrollment, are seeking ways to cast a wider net.

Inserting SmartArt and Charts
Create a SmartArt graphic
A SmartArt graphic is a visual representation of your information that you can

quickly and easily create, choosing from among many different layouts, to effectively
communicate your message or ideas. You can create SmartArt graphics in Excel, Outlook,
PowerPoint, and Word.
Overview of creating a SmartArt graphic
Most content that is created by using Microsoft Office 2010 programs is textual,
even though the use of illustrations improves understanding and memory and encourages
action. Creating designer-quality illustrations can be challenging, especially if you are not
a professional designer or you cannot afford to hire a professional designer. If you use
versions of Microsoft Office earlier than Office 2007, you can spend a lot of time getting
shapes to be the same size and to be aligned properly, getting your text to look right, and
manually formatting the shapes to match the document's overall style. With SmartArt
graphics, you can create designer-quality illustrations with only a few clicks of your
mouse.
You can create a SmartArt graphic in Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint, and Word.
Although you cannot create in most other Office 2010 programs, you can copy and paste
SmartArt graphics as images into those programs.
When you create a SmartArt graphic, you are prompted to choose a type of
SmartArt graphic, such as Process, Hierarchy, Cycle, or Relationship. Each type of
SmartArt graphics contains several different layouts. After you choose a layout, it is easy
to switch the layout or type of a SmartArt graphic. Most of your text and other content,
colors, styles, effects, and text formatting are automatically carried over to the new layout.
As you add and edit your content in the Text pane, your SmartArt graphic is
automatically updated shapes are added or removed as needed.
You can also add and remove shapes in your SmartArt graphic to adjust the
structure of the layout. For example, even though the Basic Process layout appears with
three shapes, your process may need only two shapes, or it may need five shapes. As you
`
Information Sheet
add or remove shapes and edit your text, the arrangement of the shapes and the amount
of text within those shapes is updated automatically maintaining the original design
and border of the layout for your SmartArt graphic.
What to consider when you create a SmartArt graphic
Before you create your SmartArt graphic, visualize what type and layout are best
for displaying your data. What do you want to convey with your SmartArt graphic? Do you
want a certain look? Since you can quickly and easily switch layouts, try different layouts
(across types) until you find the one that best illustrates your message. Your graphic
should be clear and easy to follow. Experiment with different types by using the table
below as a starting point. The table is intended to help you get started and is not an
exhaustive list.
Graphic
Purpose of graphic type
Show non-sequential information List
Show steps in a process or timeline Process
Show a continual process Cycle
Show a decision tree Hierarchy
Create an organization chart Hierarchy
Illustrate connections Relationship
Show how parts relate to a whole Matrix
Show proportional relationships with the Pyramid
largest component on the top or bottom
Draw a family tree with pictures Picture
Also, consider the amount of text that you have, because the amount of text often
determines the layout that you use and how many shapes you need in the layout. In
general, SmartArt graphics are most effective when the number of shapes and the amount
of text are limited to key points. Larger amounts of text can distract from the visual
appeal of your SmartArt graphic and make it harder to convey your message visually.
However, some layouts, such as Trapezoid List in the List type, work well with larger
amounts of text.
Some layouts for SmartArt graphics contain a fixed number of shapes. For
example, the Opposing Arrows layout in the Relationship type is designed to show two
opposing ideas or concepts. Only two shapes can correspond to text, and the layout
cannot be changed to display more ideas or concepts.
`
Information Sheet
The Opposing Arrows layout with two opposing ideas
If you need to convey more than two ideas, switch to another layout that has more
than two shapes for text, such as the Basic Pyramid layout in the Pyramid type. Keep in
mind that changing layouts or types can alter the meaning of your information. For
example, a layout with arrows pointing to the right, such as Basic Process in the Process
type, has a different meaning from a SmartArt graphic with arrows going in a circle, such
as Continuous Cycle in the Cycle type.
Create a SmartArt graphic and add text to it
1. On the Insert tab, in the Illustrations group, click SmartArt.
An example of the Illustration group on the Insert tab, in PowerPoint 2010
2. In the Choose a SmartArt Graphic dialog box, click the type and layout that you
want.
3. Enter your text by doing one of the following:
Click [Text] in the Text pane, and then type your text.
Copy text from another location or program, click [Text] in the Text pane, and
then paste your text.
If the Text pane is not visible, click the control.
`
Information Sheet
To add text in an arbitrary position close to or on top of your SmartArt

graphic, on the Insert tab, in the Text group, click Text Box to insert a text
box (text box: A movable, resizable container for text or graphics. Use text
boxes to position several blocks of text on a page or to give text a different

Using Grouped and Ungrouped Objects
You can group shapes, pictures, or other objects. Grouping lets you rotate, flip,
move, or resize all shapes or objects at the same time as though they were a single shape
or object. You can also change the attributes of all of the shapes in a group at one time,
by adding a shape fills or shape effect, for example. You can select an item within a group
and apply an attribute without ungrouping the shapes, or you can create groups within
groups to help you build complex drawings.
You can also ungroup a group of shapes at any time and then regroup them later.
Group shapes or objects
1. Hold CTRL and select the shapes or other objects that you want to group.
2. Under Drawing Tools, on the Format tab, in the Arrange group, click , and
then click Group .

shape or other object. You might have to double-click the object to open the Format tab.

shape or object within the group. Select the group, and then click the individual
shape or object that you want to select.
