"Introduction to Basic Computer Use" is a hands on class for the absolute beginner,
no previous computer experience necessary.
This class is modeled after the Basic Beginner Computer Class taught at the HAL-PC Senior Learning Center in Clear Lake,
and like the original will be taught in 8 sessions, each 1-1/2 hr long.
Each student will use one of the 12 student computers in the HAL-PC Learning Center, and enrollment is limited to 12.
Emphasis will be on basic skills: mouse & keyboard use.
Other topics include: parts of a computer and their names, the right & wrong way to turn a computer on & off,
and the difference between hardware & software.
The goal is that every graduate will be comfortable using a computer.
The knowledge & skills acquired will apply to earlier versions of Microsoft Windows.
Note: This class does not address internet and email topics.
Optional reading and excercises will be suggested.
For instance: "This week, play 10 games of Solitaire."
Members $35.00, Non-Members $55.00
