INFS 1010Computer Applications for Presentations2
Computer Applications for Presentations study is designed to educate students to use computers effectively for business and personal applications. Its problem-solving feature prepares the student to analyze data, to develop critical thinking, and to discover effective solutions in real-life situations and in business problems. Students would gain competence in learning new software packages--a critical skill for future employment in this world of changing software. The study includes general concepts of office suite and concentrates on the learning of word processing and presentation graphics applications. Basic familiarity with computers is helpful, but no previous study of computers is assumed. This course requires an IBM compatible computer (Apple machines are not supported). Students must have access to the Microsoft Office Suite for use in the course. This course was previously listed as INFS 1001. If students have already taken INFS 1000 Computer Applications or equivalent, they should not register for Computer Applications for Presentations.

In this study students will learn the fundamental concepts of computer structure and function, and the wide range of applications in data and information processing. Students will also gain an overview of both hardware and software. The course includes personal computers as well as large computer systems and explores aspects of systems analysis and design, data and file organization, decision-support systems, telecommunications and computers in society. Note: This course has a required video component. This course was previously SMT-272954, Computer Information Systems.
Computer software provides powerful tools for organizing, managing, displaying and analyzing information. Numerous jobs in business, human services and other fields require the ability to use spreadsheets or databases. Students will learn to use spreadsheet and database software to address information management and data analysis problems. This course uses a case study approach to gain experience in organizing and displaying information, in writing arithmetic and logical expressions, and in analyzing data. Highly Recommended (not required): An introductory- level college mathematics study and the ability to use MS Windows and a word processor. Some experience with Excel would be helpful.
The objectives of this study are to provide student with advanced knowledge and problem solving skills with computer business applications. The study presents coverage of major software applications, and helps students using proficiently: a computer operating system and file management tools; Internet browsing and e-communications utilities; office applications (MS Office 365, or 2013/2010) - word processing, spreadsheets, using database system functions, and presentation software utilities, integrating Word, Excel, Access, and PowerPoint documents and Web applications. Assumptions about surrounding courses: Students should have an understanding of computers, networks, along with a fundamental understanding of computer use in an organizational environment.
