| Abstract: | This lab manual is designed to accompany a college course introducing students to computing. The exercises are designed to be completed by the average student in a supervised 2-hour block of time at a computer lab over 15 weeks. The intent of each lab session is to introduce a topic and have the student feel comfortable with the use of the machine and the particular software. The faculty guide supplies the instructions for each of the 15 labs. The lab topics are as follows: (1) introduction to electronic mail; (2) introduction to the Macintosh SE/II computer; (3) Macintosh SE/II orientation; (4) Macintosh SE/II WORKS/wordprocessing orientation; (5) WORKS/database applications; (6) WORKS/spreadsheet applications; (7) integrated WORKS; (8) general Macintosh applications; (9) Macintosh graphics applications; (10) Hypercard and videodisc applications; (11) introduction to the Apple IIe/Apple GS; (12) introduction to Apple DOS/system utilities; (13) Apple IIe languages (BASIC and LOGO); (14) Apple IIe/GS software and documentation evaluation; and (15) how to buy a computer [and] computer ethics.
