Description:
This one-term project-based course is a continuation of the introduction to basic computer skills begun in the Introduction to Technology course. Students broaden their knowledge of what a computer can do for them through database and spreadsheet programs, desktop-publishing and digital-imaging software, web-page design with HTML and wiki or blogging resources. Mindmapping software, chart-making, presentation tools and computer programming are also introduced. Computer ethics, technology and social issues are often investigated during this course. Students are encouraged to enroll in this course as early as possible upon arriving to Marist.
