The group was presented with a  task sheet today to work through and everyone did extremely well!. 

The following is a link to the task sheet, if you're interested in working through it

If clicking on the link doesn't work for you, copy and paste (or type)  the details into the address bar of any browser, hit ENTER, and you'll get to the document.

Skills we covered in working through the task sheet included:
- Using google search to find a specific image
- Downloading and saving an image from the internet
- FINDING the file we downloaded
- Editing images (adding text etc)
- Saving documents/images to shared Dropbox folder

- Creating a text document, saving the document

- Mouse skills (the snake game  :)  )

Change in Session Times

Computer sessions are being rescheduled.  In future, they'll be held on the  FIRST MONDAY of each month,  in the library at Halcyon Waters, 10am - 1pm.  (No longer fortnightly)

The next session will be Monday 3rd October.

We're looking to encourage beginner beginners again.  Residents who really need to get back to basics with using their laptops and internet enabled devices. Please pass the word around and encourage all residents to come along.   We'll split the sessions loosely into two - 10 to 11.30 for beginners and 11.30 to 1pm from more advanced users. We'll work through task sheets so that you have something to take away with you as a memory jogger.  Anyone with specific queries is also of course  welcome, and we'll do what we can to solve your issues.
