Description
This workbook takes a hands-on approach to guide readers through the basics of the Internet with activities that test and reinforce their understanding. The book directs the reader to to sit down in front of the computer and immediately begin learning by doing - at your own pace, and at times convenient to you. It includes many topics from an explanation of logging on and "Netiquette" to using all of the basic search tools and subscribing to a discussion group. Throughout each chapter, detailed assignments such as learning how to find and monitor a LISTServ, sending and receiving e-mail message and searching for answers to reference questions provide a grounding in Internet skills that should improve with further practice. The workbook should take the readers off the printed page and right to online access, enabling them to learn interactively. It should be useful for Internet trainers to use for classes and workshops or for starting "newbie" Net explorers to use on their own.
