Digital Skills Lecture Computer Basics

Join us for an informative lecture on Computer Basics.

This lecture is designed for the individual who is considering adding a computer to their home or is interested in learning more about computers in general. This course will discuss what a computer is, how it impacts daily life, and what type of computer is the best fit. Participants learn the basics of hardware and software, to better understand how to get the most from a computer, and the five things to consider in making an informed decision when purchasing a computer. 

This event is brought to you in partnership with Porter County Public Library.
