Second Grading Lecture 1

Getting Started in Word

When you open the Word application, you’re faced with a blank slate—a big white space, awaiting your text. This white area (also known as the document window) is surrounded by tools. You’ll find toolbars, menus, a task pane, a status bar, and lots of tools and features to empower you as you write your letter, memo, report—whatever it is you’re creating.

The blank page also contains a cursor, also known as an insertion point. Whenever the document is active, the cursor will be blinking, waiting for you to type. The fact that the cursor greets you when you open a new Word document is further proof that you don’t need to know much about Word to create a document. Just start typing at the cursor, and Word’s default settings for text handling and formatting will do much of the rest.

Working with Word Wrap

As you type your text, it’s important that you really just type. Don’t worry about your margins or press ENTER in anticipation of running into the right margin. Word will automatically flow your text from one line to the next, using a feature called word wrap. Word wrap only works if you let it.

ELEMENTS OF A WEB SITE

Just like other windows, any web site has a title bar, a menu bar, and a toolbar. The title bar shows the current site being used while the menu bar shows available list command options like file, edit, view, favorites, tools and help. By clicking the Go button, one can go to the web site that appears in the address bar. On the right side of the window, the scroll bar appears where you can scroll up and down on the page.

The Internet, also called the net, is an electronic communication device. It is one of the largest networks that link millions or trillions of computers all over the world. Internet is simply there and no one knows exactly how many computers are connected to the Internet.

Lecture 3

ACCESSING AND NAVIGATING THE OPERATION SYSTEM FEATURES AND FUNCTIONS

The operating system is the core software component of your computer. It performs many functions and is, in very basic terms, an interface between your computer and the outside world. The operating system provides an interface to these parts using what is referred to as “drivers”. This is why sometimes when you install a new printer or other piece of hardware, your system will ask you to install more software called a driver.

History of Computers

Ancient times – no computers or calculators yet.

Year 500 B.C. – the Chinese invented the ABACUS considered to be the first computer device, which can perform simple addition and subtraction operations.

1617 – John Napier, a Scottish mathematician, invented the Napier’s Bone – A table of logarithm made of ivory. This reduced the complicated multiplication and division to simple addition and subtraction.
