Merge

Your post should look like this:

Mail Merge

You are in a negotiation room where two opposite entities are fighting and no one is leaving until issues are resolved. You have an idea. If you create a list with 15 names in Excel.

Then you write a document in word with a watermark which has a greeting, a color background (see if you can use this feature, you may not be able to,) a border, a picture from the Internet in the shape of a heart.  The document should be written in  a funky font and explain how you will save the world.


Now you use mail merge to merge correctly the two documents.


In your groups, create the excel document and the word document. Mail merge the two and show Mr. Mills the final project.
Print it to the XPS printer (which just saves the document) and take a screen shot of it, post it, and blog about the experience.

Make sure you name your team and assign members roles. Facilitator, scribe, devil's advocate, gatekeeper.

It's OK to share information between groups.
