Computers and Connections -- A Sampler

This sampler of Module 12: Computers and Connections, is actually one of the 5 lessons in Part 1 of that module. The lesson, entitled Binary Arithmetic, describes how information of all sorts is stored and processed in computers. Like the other lessons in this module, you will see that the lesson presentation is highly interactive and graphical. This is because we believe that technical information is most easily learned when it is presented graphically, and that the best way to learn is to be actively engaged with the subject you are learning.

If you enroll in the Computers and Connections module, you will not only learn about how your own computer works, but also about how we are all connected together on the Internet. Each of the two parts of this Module are designed to take the confusion and frustration out of living in this phenomenon we call the Information Age.

We hope that you will enjoy this sampler of Module 12, and that you will decide to enroll in and complete the module itself.
