Introduction to Basic Computer Use

"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
