A good guide to using the Citation tools in MS Word 2010 and Word for Mac 2011. Be sure to double check that the Chicago citations match those required by the Curtin Chicago Referencing Guide.
This is an awesome innovative presentation application. It works like Powerpoint and Keynote (as far as I can tell). I would like to recommend that this be explored with the view to making it *the* OP tool for HUM100 (and other Curtin units) as it could potentially, save a lot of angst and drama re upload and sharing issues!
Mindmiester is a fairly basic tool that allows people to collaborate on mindmaps. The free version is limited but the academic version is a lot cheaper than Mindmanager. There are also some good example of mindmaps.
This is a good, basic guide to using graphics in most formal texts, including academic essays and reports. It's adapted from the hardcover book 'Power Tools for Technical Communication' by the same author. It was written in the 1990s, so the stuff on scanning is out of date, but the basics are sound.
