Computer lessons for beginners. Computer courses for beginners from scratch

Nowadays, almost everyone has a device such as a laptop. For example, people ... They also want to keep up with modern technologies. Therefore, this article will help you understand the basics of using a laptop.

The training system is divided into several stages.

First of all, it is worth learning some of the concepts of a computer. Studies show that nothing is difficult to use a laptop. However, a large amount of information inspires fear about the inability to use the device. But here everything depends only on the desire of the pensioner.

Mastering a laptop easily with video tutorials

Here are the first laptop features:

  • A clear advantage among communication devices is a program that provides free video contacts with any subscriber around the world who has a computer with Skype and the Internet in their arsenal.
  • You can type on it, followed by printing, and you can create a large number of copies without using a carbon copy. Having made a mistake in the text, you do not need to use an eraser, you can simply delete it with one key press. So, the typewriter is no longer needed!
  • The laptop copes well with, or else made on the phone. That is, it is able to edit, correct the necessary qualities, or remove some effects.
  • Using a laptop, you can send a letter to relatives or a friend anywhere in the world.

As you already understood that you are a laptop user, the device itself has an operating system that has several versions. Moreover, this system is capable of performing many tasks. If the laptop is connected to the network, accordingly, it has a lot of information that can be obtained from the results of a search query.

You can search for information on the Internet by specifying the website's email address or simply its name in the address bar. Remember, if you are looking for a site using an address, enter the characters very carefully, if at least one letter or sign is indicated incorrectly, you will be taken to a completely different site, and accordingly it provides different information.

The site address is always written in Latin characters. can be done by a combination of two keys "Alt + Shift". The most popular search engine is Google. It is she who will provide a large selection of information that matches your request.

To perform a particular operation, you can use hot keys or the mouse. are a combination of keyboard buttons, sometimes there is one button. This tool is used mainly by those who do not have the skills to use a mouse.

However, there is an opinion that in order to master a computer, at least at an initial level, it is not necessary to know all the principles of its operation and technical characteristics. Computer programming shouldn't give you excitement.

Remember that the more often you return to a particular task on your laptop, the faster your user skills will become moderate.

The hardest part is learning with the mouse. Double-click the right mouse button ... Some replace one double-click with two single clicks. However, these are completely different things. Therefore, a pensioner can stop at this stage of training for a certain period of time. But in the future, you can confidently make such a click with any number of its clicks.

A laptop is no longer a luxury, so even an elderly person sometimes has to turn to him for help, since typewriters and paper letters have long been out of fashion and much harder to use. This device can perform a wide range of diverse information.

For faster and more understandable learning to work on a laptop, it is better to use training video courses recorded on DVD discs. For a better understanding of the course, watch the video review from Uncle Sasha. It's simple, easy and not expensive!

Good drive for mastering a laptop. Helped me a lot!

After reading this article, the thought comes to mind that it is impossible to understand computer fundamentals by reading these recommendations, not only for people of age, but also for young people. It hurts, everything is somehow confusingly described, nothing to understand.

It is much easier to get skills through illustrative examples while working in programs, see Grandpa's review in a video clip, well, or in extreme cases, view screenshots (pictures from the monitor screen) with step-by-step explanations.

The most effective method remains when smart heads take the hand and lead to the goal, forcing you to press the necessary keyboard keys, direct the mouse pointer for you, forcing you to click in the indicated places. But this method obliges your mentor to be with you at all times, being the most expensive of all training options.

The main task of the computer is to provide the user with the most efficient performance of the assigned tasks. Nowadays, in many jobs, you need to be able to own iron, but not everyone can cope with it. This article will provide a brief instruction on how to learn how to work on a computer for free.

You will need

  • computer;
  • teaching aids;
  • computer courses.

Instructions

  • Learn to touch typing (ten-finger touch typing). In many cases, working at a computer is associated with typing, which is why it is important to type quickly, without looking at the keyboard. People who are proficient in this method can type over 300 characters per minute.
  • Try to avoid the "typing method", this path is very tortuous: many programs cannot be understood intuitively.
  • Make it a rule to read the built-in documentation for all distributions new to you. This way you can cut down on the time spent learning the software and be more productive.
  • Memorize the shortcut keys and then use them in your work. They exist in almost all software.
  • It's worth optimizing your virtual workspace. On the desktop, you can bring shortcuts to those programs and folders that you use every day.
  • Structure the data that is stored on your hard drive. Place text documents in some folders, photos in others, videos in a third. Make it so that it takes the shortest time to find the information you need.
  • If you realize that your computer skills are not very good, it is worth hiring a tutor or enrolling in computer literacy courses. So you can get rid of the need to study from books and quickly get the same amount of knowledge.

note

If you have managed to master a computer to the level of an ordinary user and want to study further, then you can study from books, only you need to avoid materials for beginners, because then you will have to filter out more unnecessary information. Give preference to books for advanced users or professionals.

Do not be afraid to bring a virus into your computer or break it, constantly study unknown computer functions. Confidence is only half the battle.

If you decide to find a tutor or enroll in computer literacy courses, you do not need to rely on them for everything: you should always take the initiative. Otherwise, you will automatically always wait for advice, and the necessary information will be more difficult to remember.

Currently, people who do not yet know how to work at a computer feel a little flawed and their feelings are understandable. Our world is becoming more and more computerized every day. Electronic documents, e-mail, the ability to communicate via the Internet have become firmly established in every home. Many modern digital devices are either associated with computers or are themselves mini-computers.
In a word, the desire of computer “dummies” to learn how to work with computers is understandable.
What does it mean to know the computer at least "satisfactorily"?
Let's try to define a computer minimum for ourselves, that is, the knowledge and skills that are included in the concept of computer literacy.
Let's list these skills in order of their mastery.
- learn to work with a keyboard and mouse, it will come only with time (you can train with the help of special programs);
- learn how to create, save, edit files;
- learn how to install and uninstall programs (necessary for further work);
- learn how to create an electronic mailbox;
- learn how to register on Skype, on social networks;
- know how to protect documents and files (create passwords, keys);
- know how to protect your computer from viruses;
- be aware of the dangers of the Internet.
Where to start learning?
1. First of all, you need a computer (stationary or laptop, a tablet is also suitable).
2. It is desirable to have an Internet connection (although it is not necessary).
3. You need programs, an operating system (Windows or Linux, it doesn't matter), a minimum of applications (for example, Microsoft Office).
You can buy all this yourself, but you can also use someone else's property (rent, courses, ask your relatives). It is better, of course, to have all this in personal property.
After that, you can begin to comprehend the basics of computer literacy.
Computer training options.
1. Classes on the courses. Such courses are organized in every city and there are no problems here, they have a material base, and specialists, and a training program. Therefore, we will not talk about the courses further.
2. Self-study.
In this case, several more options arise.
The easiest of them is to comprehend the computer by trial and error, but it will be better if you are “controlled” by someone who knows (it is not a problem to find them, son, husband, colleague ...). Any computer program has in its arsenal reference materials for self-study. They will become your assistants not only during the training period, but also after you have mastered the computer.
Your training will become more effective if you use special training video courses on disks.
These options can be offered to those who do not yet have an Internet connection.
With the Internet, the process of teaching a computer will become not only more efficient, but also much more interesting.
You can use the same video courses (of which you can find a huge number), but in the online version.
In addition, there are sites on the Internet that are dedicated specifically for this purpose. It is enough to type in the search engine the query "computers for beginners".
These sites are entirely devoted to computer training, the materials in them are presented in the form of lessons. Having mastered one lesson, you move on to the second and so on.
There is another interesting option for teaching a computer over the Internet.
To do this, you need to register on one of the social sites and start “living” there. That is, write comments, view photos, upload your materials. This teaching method can be called learning by doing.
You can use any of these training options and join the ranks of users!
