About This Activity
Students will get an introduction into computer applications with a focus on Google and Microsoft Office applications. We will explore Google drive, email, calendar, and document creation and collaboration. We will also explore the basics of Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Students will be required to demonstrate their understanding of the material through homework assignments and an end of semester presentation. Throughout the class we will provide instruction and time for keyboard/typing practice. Students will need a laptop with a keyboard for this class. Parents will be responsible for installing any needed virus protection and/or other Internet protection software on their student's laptop. In order to keep costs to a minimum, Microsoft Office will not be required to be purchased, but it would be beneficial. Homework and presentation requirements will be in the free, Google application. This is not a beginner computer course. Students should already have a basic understanding of computers and some typing experience. Instructor: Mandi Rodstol
