Intro to Computers

Computers were created to make our work easier, faster, and more efficient.

Using a computer, you can accomplish a task that would normally take you a few hours (e.g., writing a letter to 100s of people) in just a few minutes!

Our course will focus on Microsoft’s Office Suite, which is the group of applications targeted at achieving day-to-day academic or business-related tasks such as composing a letter or flyer, creating a presentation, generating & disseminating spreadsheets, and storing & processing data in a database.

However, before covering the Office apps, we should get acquainted with the basic usage of a computer, and this is what we do today! (And perhaps also next class.)
