If you’ve just finished Comp 030, you can skim quickly through this section (but don’t skip the assignment at the end of the page). It is intended to remind you of some of the basic terminology and tasks (like clicking on an icon or creating folders and files) that you need to work your way around your computer and through this course.
For each link, just read until you reach the first “Continue”, then come back to this page for more instructions. The first two links are from Lesson 1.3 of Comp 030:
Getting Started – how to turn your computer on and off; basic terminology
Desktop and Applications – a quick tour through icons, clicking, files, folders and applications (Windows and Mac)
If you want a review of using the mouse or a laptop touchpad, you can follow these links (also from Comp 030).
Mousing Around
Using the TouchPad
For a review of printing documents, go to Lesson 2.5.
If you have any questions, please ask your instructor or instructional assistant.
Once you have gone through this lesson, you can complete Assignment 2.1.1. on the Module 2 Assignments page.
