Narration
1. The computers main job is to
run programs. Programs are
instructions in a language that
computers and programmers
understand. A programmer, or
a team of programmers writes
a program and saves it on a
long term storage device like a
floppy drive, a hard disk or a
CD-ROM.
2. Then, when you want to run
that program, you type its
name and the computer goes
and gets the program off the
hard drive, or wherever it is
stored, and brings it into its
short term storage, called RAM,
and runs the program.

1. Learning Mouse Skills

1.
Narration
1. Introduce the mouse:
The Mouse is the device you will use for most of
your interactions with your PC. It is primarily
used to move the pointer arrow around the
screen and to select and activate options.
2. Narration
The mouse buttons are used to interact with
whatever is on the screen where the pointer is
located. The left mouse button is the one you
will use most often. Clicking this tells the PC to
select an item and is called 'left-clicking'. To
activate an item and use it, you will often need
to click the button twice or 'double-click'.

1.
Narration
1. If you click and hold the left button and
move the mouse, this has the effect of
'dragging' a selected object about the
screen until you release the button.
Left-clicking on text in a document will
place a flashing cursor at that point, which
allows you to begin typing there.
2.
Narration
2. The right mouse button is usually used to
bring up a small menu window that gives
options specific to the selected object. To use
a particular option you just left-click it.
Common right-click menu options for an
object include: Open (activate, same as if you
double-click), Cut (remove to be placed
elsewhere), Copy (make a copy of this
object) , Create Shortcut (create a shortcut
link elsewhere to give quick access to this
object), Delete (remove permanently),
Rename (give a new name), and Properties
(find out information).
