CIS 120 and CIS 131 both cover topics that go beyond
the basics. If you can perform the series of file management tasks below in less than fifteen (15)
minutes, you should feel confident registering for either of these classes.
- Open
Notepad from the Accessories menu. Type your name. Save the file as “Practice” to the desktop. Then, close Notepad.
- Without opening
the “Practice” file, place a copy of
the “Practice” file into the My Documents folder.
- Open the
My Documents folder and rename the “Practice”
file in the My Documents folder to “CIS Practice”. Close the My Documents folder.
- Open the
COCC Foundation web site (http://foundation.cocc.edu) and copy
the paragraph that begins with the sentence, “As the region grows...”. Copy this paragraph using shortcut keys
or the context menu (right-click).
- Minimize
the web browser that is displaying the COCC web site and re-open the “Practice”
file on the desktop.
- Paste
the paragraph you copied from the Web below your name. Save the file. Close Notepad.
- Open the
My Documents folder and create a new folder called “CIS”.
- Move the
“Practice” file from the desktop and the “CIS Practice” file from My Documents
into the newly created “CIS” folder
The skills required in these tasks are part of
CIS 70, which is a 2-credit class and great prep for CIS 120 and CIS 131. By
entering classes prepared, you will increase the chances that you will have a
positive experience, retain more information, and earn a high grade.
