Keyboarding has become a universal writing skill. It has become increasingly important in the technological age because it provides students with the "touch method" of inputting data into the computer. To receive maximum value from a computer's high-speed output, the user must be competent at the input end--the keyboard. This course gives students intensive instruction in mastering the keyboard, formatting, graphics, and word processing techniques. This course is recommended prior to taking other computer applications courses.

 

* Students are responsible for bringing a laptop to each class.
