Technology Literacy
Featured
Technology is a part of everyone’s lives. This will only become more important in the lives of our students as they leave school and join the workforce. In an attempt to make it easier to learn some of the more hidden pieces, we have created a variety of short videos that will assist our students (and others) to learn basic technology tools.
These are not step by step instructions, but rather pieces of technology we find students may miss or misunderstand. Step by step instructions for any of the Microsoft products such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, or Access can be found on the Microsoft Site.
