However, even with the goals we have placed on ourselves as teachers, we recognize that learning is a two-way meeting of the minds and that the students have the right to fail if they choose that path. We would hope that our students would choose the mind set of wanting to take every opportunity to achieve success in the classroom as well as in an advanced technological society. We support the Elko High School Mission and Belief Statements. This course is designed to introduce the student to the basic skills and knowledge unique to the operation of a computer. There will be extensive hands-on activities.
Keyboarding skills are a definite advantage during the class.
The student and the teacher will decide which modules will be completed per semester. This decision will be based on the student's choice, the teacher's experience, and the capabilities of the computer lab. Teachers should encourage students to complete both parts where there are two parts.
