Title: Machiné Learning Basic 101 Date: January 2026

Introduction: Welcome to our basic computer skills course! In this note, we'll cover the basics of how computers work and how to interact with them. This is a beginner level course, so expectations may vary based on your prior experience with computers. Here are some helpful tips that will get you started:

  1. Get comfortable with basic commands like "enter" and "backspace." 2. Pay attention to the layout of your computer screen. It's not always obvious where certain controls or buttons are located, so be sure to check the manual or online tutorials for a visual guide. 3. Practice typing as much as possible, even if you're just hitting "enter" and "tab." This will help you get comfortable with keyboards and make it easier to use software later on. 4. Read over notes before class to familiarize yourself with the course material. If you have any questions or need clarification on a particular topic, ask the instructor during class.

Session 1: Introduction to Computers

  1. What is a computer? - A computer is a device that can be programmed and used for data storage, retrieval, and manipulation.

  2. The basics of typing - Typing is the most common way people interact with computers. It involves pressing keys on a keyboard or pointing device to create characters on the screen.

  3. Commands you'll need to know - Enter (at least once per sentence), tab, backspace, up and down arrows, delete, and so on... These commands are how you perform basic actions like typing, moving windows, selecting options, and more.

  4. Keyboard layouts - The layout of your keyboard can vary between computers, so be sure to check your manual or online tutorials for a visual guide. The standard keyboards on desktop computers typically include "enter," "tab," and "backspace" as the first four keys, but you may have different layouts depending on the model you have.

Session 2: Interactive software and applications

  1. What is software? - Software is digital programs that run on a computer. It can be used to perform specific tasks like word processing, spreadsheet analysis, or video editing.

  2. The basics of running software - To use software, you'll need to open it up, so be sure to check the manual or online tutorials for instructions on how to do this.

  3. Applications - Different types of software have different applications, like word processing software, spreadsheet programs, image editing software, and more.

  4. Tips for using interactive software - Be sure to familiarize yourself with your software's interface (the way it looks), so you can find what you need easily. Use the search feature or press "F1" to get help when stuck.

Session 3: Basic Windows commands and keyboard shortcuts

  1. What is a Windows operating system? - A Windows operating system is the most commonly used type of computer, so this will be our main focus.

  2. Keyboard shortcuts - Using Windows keyboards for shortcuts can save you a lot of time. For example, pressing "C" or "V" instead of typing them in will make the "Ctrl" and "Shift" keys appear on your keyboard.

  3. The basics of Windows commands - Windows has a lot of built-in commands that you can access through the Start menu or by using the Windows key (as well as other shortcuts).

  4. Tips for using basic Windows commands - Pressing "Ctrl + C" at the same time will copy the contents of your clipboard to the system clipboard. This makes it easy to paste the text into a new document or file later.

Session 4: Advanced applications and programs

  1. What is a program? - A program is a set of functions (or tasks) that can be run on a computer.

  2. The basics of launching software - To start up an application, double-click its icon or press the "Start" button.

  3. Launching advanced programs - Advanced programs have more features than the basic ones and you may need to download them beforehand. If it's an ebook, for example, you'll probably need Adobe Acrobat Reader or PDF reader software to read it on your computer.

  4. Tips for using advanced applications and programs - Pay attention to the program's help menu (usually available by pressing "F1") to learn how to use its features. Make sure you know what you're doing before proceeding with any new tasks or projects.

Conclusion: In conclusion, this basic computer skills course is designed to get you started in using computers for personal and professional purposes. Don't be afraid to ask questions and practice typing, keyboard shortcuts, and software applications regularly. Have fun learning!
