Are you using Word 2007 or 2010 just for text? If so, you are missing many tools this program offers for the genealogist to create a family narrative complete with photos, maps, newspaper clippings, clip art, copies of documents, etc. integrated into your narrative. Learn to use Word to create a “Pieces of Your Past” booklet as a way of sharing direct lineage without overwhelming others. This is a "hands on" class and you are encouraged to bring your laptop. Don't worry, if you don't have a laptop, come anyhow!

This class is appropriate for those with basic computer and word processing skills.
