Computer Technology  | Core | Introduction to Computer Technology

This one-semester course is built on the premise that computers are, first and foremost, tools that help students become more productive while improving the quality and intellectual scope of their work. We will focus on developing a working knowledge of computer applications and concepts. Special emphasis is placed on internet research techniques and the legal and ethical use of intellectual property as well as technology. Students will complete short “building block” assignments—primarily using the Microsoft Office suite of products—before working on larger projects which build upon the skills learned in the shorter assignments.
