The Basics
Basic
computer skills needed: Click, highlight, send
and receive email.
Recommended computer
skills. (Required for some classes:) The
ability to take digital photos, store them in your computer, and access
them. ***This is the only way for Ellen to see your work!
Computer software needed: Adobe Acrobat Reader; which is free and downloadable software. Get it here.
Classroom Discussions
Classroom discussions, as well as Show and Tell take place in the class forum, which is a Yahoo group. The process is relatively easy.
Sharing Photos
What's a class without Show and Tell? Thankfully, showing your progress is easy to do with these classes. As part of the Yahoo forum group, you'll be able to create your own photo album. You can easily post your photos there, and all your classmates will be able to see them. The Yahoo group has tutorial files, if you need them.
NOTE from Ellen Lindner: Computer applications are the most challenging part of online learning. Although most students have no problem with this, a few find it to be an obstacle. This is why I offer a 6 Day Money Back Guarantee. (Note: NO ONE has ever needed this guarantee. You probably won't either, but it's nice to know it's available, if you do.)
Here's how it works. You have six days to try any class. That's six whole days to learn from the first lesson, experiment with the Yahoo group, and decide whether or not you want to continue. If you are at all hesitant about your computer skills, you should try every feature during those six days. If you decide to unenroll, contact me and I will give you a full refund!Defining six days: The first lesson is posted by noon on a Friday, EASTERN TIME, U.S. (That's either 4 or 5 hours behind Greenwich Mean Time, depending on whether the U.S. is using Standard Time or Daylight Savings Time.) You have until noon, Eastern time, U.S., the following Thursday to request a refund. The posted time of your email is used as the reference.
