Downloading resources from the Web is fairly common. What do you think the legal
issues are when doing this? Should people expect to give up property rights to
material they have created when they post it on the Web? Why or why not?
Does WordArt add to or detract from the look of a Word document? For what types
of documents might it be inappropriate?
When discussing tables we talk about a cell as the intersection of a row and a
column. We also talk about merging cells and splitting cells. Does it make sense to
talk about merging and splitting rows or columns? How do you split a table? When
would you want to do this?

Good Working Positions
To understand the best way to set up a computer
workstation, it is helpful to understand the concept of
neutral body positioning. This is a comfortable
working posture in which your joints are naturally
aligned. Working with the body in a neutral position
reduces stress and strain on the muscles, tendons, and
skeletal system and reduces your risk of developing a
musculoskeletal disorder (MSD). The following are
important considerations when attempting to maintain
neutral body postures while working at the computer
workstation:

Hands, wrists, and forearms are straight, in-line
and roughly parallel to the floor.

Head is level, or bent slightly forward, forward facing, and balanced. Generally it is in-line
with the torso.

Shoulders are relaxed and upper arms hang normally at the side of the body.

Elbows stay in close to the body and are bent between 90 and 120º.

Feet are fully supported by floor or footrest.

Back is fully supported with appropriate lumbar support when sitting vertical or leaning
back slightly.

Thighs and hips are supported by a well-padded seat and generally parallel to the floor.

Knees are about the same height as the hips with the feet slightly forward.
Regardless of how good your working posture is, working in the same posture or sitting still for
prolonged periods is not healthy. You should change your working position frequently
throughout the day in the following ways:

Make small adjustments to your chair or backrest.

Stretch your fingers, hands, arms, and torso.

Stand up and walk around for a few minutes periodically.
These four reference postures are examples of body posture changes that all provide neutral
positioning for the body.
