FROM THE TEACHER

Technology surrounds us. You likely have some piece of technology with you everywhere you go. If you have a limited understanding and want to learn more about the technology we use almost every day, this course is for you. We will look at basic concepts that are common throughout all areas of life, including how computers and networks function, databases, programming and security.
