This book is easy for teachers and parents to use (no data files are needed, no keyboarding app is needed, no lectures are needed, and no hand-outs are needed.
This book includes 99 hands-on projects (generic projects and projects for Windows 7 and Windows 8). The learning of concepts and skills is enhanced with hundreds of illustrations. Basic skills are introduced using the easy-to-learn Windows Paint app.
This book was originally designed and formatted as an e-book for the Kindle Reader (the book includes large font sizes for viewing on tablets). This book is part of a three-part series for grades 4, 5, and 6.
