Description: Learning how to type is a foundational skill needed to efficiently operate in our technology era. In this class, you will practice typing daily, and watch your typing speed gradually increase over weeks of practice. When you are not typing, you will be learning the basics of word processing, such as cut, copy, paste, file management (saving then finding your work), citing electronic references correctly, printing and other peripherals, and much more. This class will help you use many of the features of the Microsoft Word program, like the spell check and thesaurus, how to change the font and size of the text, use tables and numbering, learn how to format a research paper and letter, insert pictures and web links, as well as become familiar with the tool bar.
