    How To Teach Computer Basics
    Hello! I am Sparky. I have several people that I would like to teach computer basics through a website or forum. I was wondering, if you could offer any topic headings, or suggestions for them. Where to start and the transitions to go through...

    Just a Thought. Thanks, Sparky

    What can I do with a computer?
    Why should I have one?
    What should I look for when I'm buying one?

    There is "What is the INTERNET"?
    How do you get Internet access?
    How do you secure your access?

    In general, How are routers configired?
    What is a switch/hub?

    User interfaces
    What is a browser?

    The concept of files and types.
    What is a service/port?

    Email

    What is "Windows"?

    Are you a commercial venture seeking to offer services to users of this forum? Or are you seeking information from this forum on package offerings and class content to make to your independent customer set?

    I am considering independent customer set and would also like to just teach some folks I care for, for free. I pretty much know now which direction I would like to go, but is nice to know what others would like to learn. Maybe I should have said this:

    Imagion you're a beginner at computers (If your not already):
    What would you like to know how to do?

    Just curious and thanks so much for the answers already given. It truly helps! Smiles to all! Sparky

    If your are a true beginner with a PC the a website would be completely pointless as they would be unlikely to be connected anyway.

    Thank you for all your help. Mine would not be on website, yes, I understand that would not really help a beginner. Thanks for the OPEN OFFICE SKILL BUILDERS. Those are great. I will offer them to my friends. Sparky
