This workbook has been developed for use with the lesson plans contained in “Introduction to Computers,” published by Columbia Basin Alliance for Literacy (CBAL). It contains handouts and activities designed to help adults learn such basic computer skills as preparing and managing documents; formatting tables; checking spelling; and inserting pictures.

The authors have included pictures that identify the parts of a computer and help learners become familiar with Windows.

Activities are based on such common tasks as using the tab key to prepare a schedule; changing the margins on a document; and making a poster for a yard sale.
