Computer knowledge is critical for not only most jobs, but even college and high school! Computer skills are becoming necessary for almost every facet in life, but teaching it can often be left by the wayside. Written for novice teachers who want their children to learn computer science, 'pure and simple' chapters use photos of actual web browsers, icons, etc. for maximum clarity. Chapters are arranged in a mixture of short, introductory lessons and followed by a more in depth review. Students will learn about internet design, word processing, animation, spreadsheets and more. Assignments and answers included. 143 indexed pages, softcover, spiral bound.
