SUMMARY

When they gave me the work it seemed to me to be a bit difficult but as the days passed the work did not turn out to be so complicated.

When I began and they gave to me the first explanations I understood it but simultaneously it seemed to me to be a bit complex.

In the development of the work I had to realize searches in the Internet and investigate the topics proposed. Some pages were not working and we had to use other sources and verify them in several pages to make sure that the information was correct. This is called to confirm information.

The work has been useful in many things: Layout, edition of texts, advanced use of insoles, to insert hyperlinks and finally advanced use of the tools.

Notes

In the development of the work I have found that some of the pages where I have searched didn’t have what I was looking for so I had to had look in other alternative pages. For example, when I had to look for five songs.

CONCLUSIONS In these days I have improved the reading comprehension, the way of writing, the teamwork and different methods of work.
