Students learn how to use the keyboard with the touch keyboarding method in this one-semester course.  Introduction to Computer Applications is designed for anyone who would like to use the computer efficiently, successfully, and productively. 

New skills are strengthened, and speed is increased throughout the semester.  Students use the Typing Club program through LCPS GO to learn the touch keyboarding technique and reinforcement drills are used throughout the course to develop keyboarding speed. Students will develop skills for entering information using a keyboard to compose and produce personal, educational, and professional documents.  Digital literacy and entrepreneurship lessons are accessible through Everfi.com.  Online block coding will be used for the programming component.
