Hello Newbies!
The purpose of this workshop is to help you become familiar and comfortable with the basic operations of Windows so that you can take charge of your computer with confidence.
Rules of the game:
Do not be afraid of making a mistake. This is how we learn.
Be willing to explore and discover what you can do.
Always remember that You are the Boss. A computer is only a machine. It is not smarter than you are, and it can only do what it is told to do. The trick is knowing what to tell it to do.
Windows is an operating system, or platform, that allows you to activate commands to run programs on your computer by clicking on icons, buttons and menu items. When you open a program, it pops up in a window on your desktop. Each window will have toolbars with icons that you use to boss your computer around.
