Description

OpenOffice Suite is a beneficial software program that enables users to multi-task, similar to Microsoft Office. Therefore, to introduce the upcoming generations to this innovative software would substantially increase productivity and generate learning initiatives. Giving younger individuals a competitive advantage by exposing them to new technology, will not only benefit them now, but also in the future. We will be surveying local schools in the Lafayette area to assist with our research plan.

Overall the paper is very good, and it loos like you guys have worked very hard on it. It looks like you have gained lots of info from all of the elementary schools that you went to. The survey info is a little harder to get just because you have to look it up each time to see which one it is, but overall it is a good paper and will be very helpfor when my group takes over

I thought your questions were excellent considering your target market's breadth of computer literacy. My group is doing Secondary schools and I didn't even think about asking if the students use office applications on a regular basis.
