This document is designed for students in Engineering Design, Production Systems, Structural Systems and Research Practicum courses at Charles Herbert Flowers High School. Students are required to have certain components formatted in their research papers. If there are any questions, make sure you contact your teacher for clarification. To get started, open a blank document in Microsoft Word.
Creating Styles Using “Managing Styles” Feature
• From the HOME ribbon, select the MANAGE STYLES icon.
o If you hover above it, it will say “Manage the styles that are used in this document.”
• Type in the name of your new style. Let’s assume this is for the Research Practicum class and you are required to have 3 levels of headings in your document as well as your table of contents.
• We will call our styles RPHeading1, RPHeading2 and RPHeading3.
• Select the options that you want for your new style.
o For our
RPHeading1 style, we will use the following: Times New Roman 12 pt font, double spacing, bold text and center aligned text.
Note: You can name your styles whatever you want, but my suggestion is to create styles that you will use for multiple classes and name them accordingly, or create styles and a template for specific classes naming your styles accordingly.
• Place a 1, 2 and 3 in the appropriate spaces as shown. Select OK.
Note: Your table of contents will appear if you have already typed text and applied your styles. On the following pages, you will see an example of the table of contents as well as the styles applied within the document. Microsoft Office 2011 for Mac does not support some features in Office 2010. It may be necessary to take additional steps (creating Table of Contents Fields) to have a tertiary heading show in the table of contents if it is inline with text. See page 12 for those instructions.
