How to master a computer quickly and easily?! It's actually quite simple!

Greetings, dear blog visitors. Dmitry Smirnov is in touch with you as always, and in this article I would like to address our dear old people, grandparents, parents who cannot understand how to master a computer on their own! Ugh, how much extra literature our bookstores can provide you with, but all of this is not necessary, you just have to follow some tips that will help you master the computer for free!


In the last article I wrote about how maybe this information will also be extremely useful to you! In fact, information on the topic “learning a computer for free” is very popular, and now I will tell you about the main failures of those who are trying to master a computer!

  1. Afraid of breaking something!
  2. Reluctance, because these are like toys!
  3. There is no point in mastering a computer, because why do you need it?!

These are the three most terrible misconceptions of everyone, especially older people, but the answers to these questions can be found in the following lines, namely:

  1. No need to be afraid of breaking anything! Computers have long become high-quality and powerful enough, whether desktop PCs, laptops or tablets! This used to be in the 2000s, back in our days of the groups Ruki Vvverh, Akula, Sveta, Kraski and all the rest, when computers were really like machines, they constantly broke down, and repairs were very, very expensive! Everyone discouraged children from buying a computer with phrases, namely: “Why do you need it, you’ll break something and that’s it!” Nowadays computers are of very high quality, and the most you can break is deleting some shortcut or program; you simply won’t be able to do anything serious!
  2. If you have no desire to learn a computer, then no one can force you to learn a computer! Remember, the computer is no longer a toy, but since 2010 it has become a real source of income! There are many ways, even for schoolchildren, to earn hundreds of thousands of rubles and millions on a computer without leaving home! I have examples where children at the age of 13 already earn 300,000 rubles a month! Even a pensioner can master a computer and benefit from it!
  3. There is no need to be mistaken and think that you will not need a computer! Tell me, how many times have you wanted to communicate with a close relative? How many times do you want to go to the post office or spend money on calling relatives? Having a computer and even simple access to the network for 200 rubles, you get unlimited communication, and you can even see live through a web camera your relative who lives 10,000 kilometers from you and all this is completely free!
  1. Just sit down and break! You need to learn from mistakes! Everyone makes mistakes, even advanced programmers! Just learn to work with a mouse, understand what the keyboard is for, where any buttons are located!
  2. Learn to type with a keyboard simulator! You don't need to buy anything, it's just a program that will teach you how to type quickly and easily! You can easily and easily start typing using just the keyboard!
  3. Do you like to read? Then the book “Computer for Dummies” is for you, or start taking courses using the same Youtube

These are the only ways to learn how to use a computer! No special courses and everything else! Of course, the most the best option Paid courses will be available for you, and live! It is in such courses that you will be taught how to work on a computer, but even if you do not want to pay money to charlotans, you can buy a book on learning a computer, or just go to YouTube, where you can find many detailed videos!

I'm glad you decided to take the initial video course - Computer Basics. This course is a textbook, which many who have completed it already call – Computer for Dummies.

If you want to start learning it right away, then first watch the video lesson about how to complete this tutorial, you can watch the video lesson (click on the word “here” once with the left mouse button), and then return here (it will tell you how), scroll down to the content of the video course, and start studying. Well, those who want to read the preface to the textbook are welcome.

A computer for dummies, or what is a computer and what do you eat it with?

For many people who are just starting to use a computer, this “usage” is a real problem. After all, this ill-fated PC (personal computer, means the same thing as just the word “computer”, so don’t be alarmed), has a huge number of functions, and as I already wrote on, after a person finds the answer to one question, fifteen more immediately appear in its place.

One day, while teaching my mother and aunt, I realized that if a person is taught certain, basic computer knowledge, then after such training, all other knowledge will be easily applied. But how can we determine this database, where can we find such words in order to present information to novice users in such a way that computer for dummies became clear.

I decided to take on this matter and wanted to create computer courses for beginners, so that they would learn from the simplest to the most complex. You will say that everyone does this. But no. Before making my course, I read three thick textbooks on teaching computers for dummies, looked at a bunch of sites with video lessons and articles, and noticed this thing - literally from the first lesson, beginners are told what a registry is, etc. But these “teachers” forget about one thing, that sometimes a person doesn’t know how to turn on a computer, and they already start telling him what a registry is, a terribly scary word for a “dummie” (By the way, if you get interested later, you can then read it, but only after going through the textbook).

My computer courses for beginners.

Let me tell you how my first course differs from others (I also have a second course, but I strongly recommend that you take it after completing the first). And it differs in that in the very first lesson (the first video is an Introduction, but it is not considered a lesson), we will learn, yes, exactly how to work with a mouse. Believe me, knowing this will save you from a lot of problems, one of which is when to click the mouse button once, and when to click twice (sometimes even the “old people” get confused). By mouse you will work the most, however, other “teachers” sometimes don’t even mention the mouse, but it’s what you’ll be “fidgeting” with the whole time you’re sitting at the computer.

After which there will be a deeper study of what is located on the desktop, because it is the one that opens in front of you after turning on the computer. We will talk in great detail about, which for many beginners is a rattling forest. After watching this tutorial, you will understand that the Start menu is one of the the most convenient tools , For fast work with programs.

In the next step, we will go through the tab (sometimes it is also called “My Computer”) and everything that is in it. More precisely, not everything, but what you need, since it is there some files and folders, in which even good craftsmen“climbing in” for a very urgent need. By the way, a couple of incomprehensible words slipped through - , and you will also be told about them in detail.

After which we once again back to the mouse, only now to , because she demands special attention and it is imperative to know how to work with it.

After we have mastered everything I talked about above, we will move on to more complex things such as: and. Do you think this is difficult and scary? But no, after completing the first five lessons, you will lose this very fear, which used to slow down your learning. Here another feeling will awaken - interest. This is exactly what we need. After all, what is interesting to learn will always encourage you to learn something new, and in the end, before you even blink an eye, you will understand the PC at a good level.

Well, in conclusion, I will show you how to write down anything. I think it is necessary to know this because learning how to write information to disk, with recording to a flash drive, you will not have any problems at all. And the flash drive is very necessary thing, and you need to be able to handle it.

Here you go short review The textbook is finished, its meaning is very simple:

1. At the beginning, we study what is the basis of the basics (mouse, desktop)
2. After which, the environment in which we will work (My Computer, Start)
3. Working with the program (Installation, and actually the work itself (using Word, Excel as an example))

As you understand, we are moving from simple to complex.

Well, all I have to do is wish you successful completion of this tutorial! To understand how to watch video lessons correctly, be sure to study this short article - (click once, left mouse button). And then you can start going through the tutorial. Good luck!

It is probably not an exaggeration to say that the most noticeable successes of scientific and technological progress are in the development of computer technology. You won’t believe it, but the first “computers” - electronic computers - occupied one or two rooms in area. About their speed and functionality compared to modern computers not worth even mentioning. Undoubtedly, the computer is the most significant invention humanity, not inferior in importance to the invention of the wheel.

It is also noteworthy that the creators of computer equipment do not stop there, constantly improving their creations, offering more and more new options. Not every one of us has yet properly mastered a standard computer, but they are already being “displaced” from the computer equipment market by more modern laptops. Once again, both beginners and experienced users have to learn a new technique. Agree, working on a laptop is still different from working on a traditional computer, so everyone, without exception, has to learn.

Strictly speaking, learning to work on a laptop on your own is not that difficult. There is plenty of literature for computer “dummies”. At the same time, paraphrasing a well-known saying, we can safely say that “it is better to see once than to read a hundred times.” Indeed, reading numerous “lessons for dummies”, it is not always possible to find answers to the simplest questions. Therefore, the most the best option is, which will help you quickly master all the intricacies of handling new equipment.

There are many advantages of this particular method of learning, which is considered the fastest, easiest and most affordable (in terms of cost). For many novice users, the most important advantage of video courses is perhaps the fact that there is no need to independently type out examples of tasks or look for the necessary software, since the authors of video courses, as a rule, offer the specific software about which we're talking about in the course sections. Step by step instructions instructions for installing and launching certain programs are easier to understand when visualizing this process, since the principle - do as I do - is the most accessible and understandable.

Even if something is not clear, you can always watch one or another episode again. Is this possible in seminar classes? Of course, you can ask the coach to explain certain actions. But asking to repeat all the material... Agree, this is impossible. Imagine the reaction of other, more advanced listeners. It should also be noted that video courses save both time and money. Having a video training course on a laptop for beginners on DVD, the novice user independently plans the time of “classes”; there is no need to hire a tutor, adjust to the timing of trainings and seminars, travel to seminars in another city, etc.

Please note that all seminars, as a rule, are paid, while there are plenty of offers of free video courses. So why pay for what you can get for free. Moreover, the effect of such independent studies is much higher.
