Computer Basics, including Internet and MS Word - In-person

Registration Required: 5-week series

This series of classes will cover computer fundamentals like using a mouse, understanding browsers and the desktop, the Windows operating system, searching, plus MS Word basics.

Because the classes are sequential and build upon each other as the weeks progress, it is highly recommended that participants attend every session. If you sign up for one session you will automatically be signed up for the rest. This program is presented by the Digital Literacy department of the University of Maryland Extension Service.

The class is in the Computer Lab, second floor of the building.
