TIL 9/9/2015

9/9/2015: Today I Learned...
Today I learned the shortcut to change the spacing in a word document. Ctrl+1 changes the highlighted text to single spacing and ctrl+2 changes the highlighted text to double spacing. Past teachers have always told me to go through several menus to get to the spacing options. This way is much faster and easier.

I also learned about bubbl.us. I think this will be very useful throughout the year to map out connections between things. It is a great visual aid. I have used it before but I learned more about it and relearned some things that I had forgotten. I think I will use this for classes outside of academy as well as when it is required at the hospital.

A third thing that I learned is about research websites. When ".com" is at the end of a URL, it stands for commercial. This means that they are making money in some way. Information found on these sites is generally not as reliable as information found on sites with ".gov",".org", or ".edu" at the end of their URLs. These abbreviations mean government, organization, and education. This knowledge will be very useful especially when researching things in the medical field when being wrong about a fact you read on the internet can majorly effect the health of a patient.

To me, professionalism's most important characteristics are trust, dependability, and maturity.
