Semester 2 (EXT)Toowoomba
Units 1.0 (Computer Science not elsewhere) Band 2
The course guides students through a carefully sequenced series of topics and real world situations, which will provide the foundation for computing skills necessary for the commencement of university studies. The structure of the course allows students to work at their own pace developing confidence and problem solving skills that will allow them to accommodate more easily to future changes in computing technologies. The course will review the nature of the computer and its parts, a typical university computer based student support system, computer-based communication, management and storage of information on a computer and a range of computing applications, including the Internet and word processing.
