Computing for the Novice


You will discover that.....
You can't really blow up a computer and it certainly won't bite you. Computers are not just for the kids or for "clever" people. It really is easy to learn quite a lot very quickly once your confidence grows just a little. There is a use for a computer in the lives of almost everyone.

For the technically minded, you will be introduced to three major software applications: word processing, databases and spreadsheets. You will learn how to make text look fancy (bold, italic, underlined), how to create a simple database of addresses (yours, your neighbours, friends, relatives), how to make a spreadsheet do your calculations for you, and lastly how to merge the entries you made in your database into a short letter you will type. No previous knowledge of typing is necessary - one finger at a time is fine!
