Previous Classes:

Intro to Social Media on the Web


Do these terms mean anything to you? Twitter. Wiki.  Blog. Facebook.  Social Network.  No?  Well, that’s about to change.  This cutting edge class offers an interactive and fun chance to not only make sense of these words, but to put them to use and create your own presence on the web.  In this six week course, we will get you connected on Facebook (and show you what the fuss is all about); help you create your very own Blog (aka, a “web log”); use “wiki” technology to create your own free and easily set up website and finally we will make you “Tweet” like a little bird…

 

 

 

Previous Class: 

Exploring the Internet - Level 2

Have you ever wondered what more there was to do on the Internet?  What does surfing the web offer that you have not yet explored?  This class is about taking things to the next level (not too fast, of course). 

 
In this fun and exciting class, we cover Google (and beyond!), researching and searching on the web (all topics!), Email tips, videos on the Web (YouTube is not just for kids anymore), Internet vocabulary, finding people, things and businesses, exploring Google Earth and so much more!  And just like every Senior Surf class, your input is part of the class; where your personal questions and topics can lead the class (what topics do YOU want covered and what are YOU having problems with?).  You're ready for it! Apple and Windows are welcome.  If you have a laptop, bring it!
