 The focus will be on how to get non-computer users familiar with basic
concepts of using a computer:

*	Parts of a computer: keyboard, mouse, monitor, printer, system
unit 
*	Using a keyboard: typing, 'Enter' key, backspace, Escape, Caps
Lock 
*	Using a mouse: keeping it facing up, clicking, double-clicking 
*	Using MS Word ( this program is considered the best to start new
users with ) 
*	The Internet: keyboarding sites, mouse practice sites 
*	Advanced Internet sites: weather, text-to-speech, maps 

 

For the Teachers:

*	Laying a Computer Foundation - what needs to be taught first 
*	Why MS Word 
*	How to introduce them to the Internet 
*	Using fun websites to help them increase their mouse and
keyboarding skills 
*	Using great websites to get them excited to learn more.....
