Introduction to Computer Science https://truenorthhomeschool.academy/p...

Computers are here to stay. They are everywhere. You can’t run an appliance or drive a car without one anymore. Their power continues to improve at an unbelievable rate. But how do they actually work? Why do they work? What can we do with them?

Computer Science has become a very broad topic. It includes computer logic, programming, and design. In this course students will explore computers from many angles. They will first look at the history of the computer. They have come such a long way and understanding the path they took helps to understand where we are and where we are going with computers.

Next the logic of a computer must be explored. Once students really understand the way computers “think” they will be well on their way to knowing how to use them best.

The class will move on to talk about Microsoft Windows and the applications you can use on the machines powered by this software giant. Fans of Apple products like iMacs and MacBooks, Google Chromebooks, or Linex machines are welcome as well and the different systems will be compared if interest exists.

Finally, this course will go over fundamental uses of word processors, spreadsheet programs, and presentation software.

Students will learn about:

Basic Parts of a Computer
Differences Between Components, Peripherals, and Accessories
Common Tasks
File Management
File Types
Command Line Instructions
Brief Introduction to Computer Programming
The internet and the World Wide Web
Microsoft Word / Google Docs / Apple Pages
