Presentation Description

With all the available technology, what knowledge and skills matter the most when it comes to the computer? During this presentation, the two panelists will answer this question as they explain the design, purpose, and content of a one-hour computer literacy course, RSCH 1203-Research Strategies/Technology, at Georgia Perimeter College. RSCH 1203 ensures that all students enrolled at GPC have some basic knowledge of common computer programs and that the students develop research skills. This course also has an interdisciplinary emphasis.
