Learning Express

I am a little late getting to the week 9 assignment, but better late than never.  Since our library was one of the recipients of the BTOP grant computers, I have spent some time looking at Learning Express Library, but it was still interesting to look over what is available there.
First I took a math GED test.  It was simple and straight forward.  I like the fact that it gives you a chance to change your mind if you have clicked "score my test" by accident.  (I did not like the fact that I missed 3 of the 8 questions I attempted.  And I used to be so good at math!)
The course I selected was Business Writing Basics.  After looking through some of the information, I closed out and then went back to see if I could easily pick up where I left off.  It was easy to find in "My Center" and was right where I left off.
Next I searched for an ebook on marketing.  The list of books which I got did not seem to have much to do with marketing, but maybe they each have sections which deal with marketing.  I spent some time looking at the book Search Smart and Get Ahead.  It was very readable, even for a non-business person.
Although I had been shown quite a bit about Learning Express before, it is different to actually use it.  I could easily recommend this to those who have a need.
