Hey there and welcome my name is Mr. Berry in this whole video we're going to be covering
lesson number 16 of the computer literacy course so let's give it a go you and i come on
lesson 16 is the last lesson of this course so it's basically a review of every chapter that
we've covered in throughout the entire curriculum we're going to be starting with that chapter being
the very first chapter of the book hey here i am in my lesson number one now lesson number
one was very much the basics getting into your chromebook or getting into your windows computer
uh the differences between a chromebook and a windows computer has gone over pretty quickly
so let's say that you're not sure do i have a chromebook or do i have a windows computer
well it's easy to find out all you have to do is look down at the lower left hand corner of
your screen when you're doing your work and if you see a circle down there here in a chromebook and
instead if you see a flag key over there then guess what you're in your windows computer
next i'll talk about using the mouse and the differences between a left and a right click
now whenever you want to do a right click let's say you're looking at the touchpad you want to
use two fingers there in a piece symbol and press at the same time with the two fingers and then you
should expect a little menu and we call that a context menu to appear out of the icon or the
object that you're right clicking on and a left click is done with just a single finger then i go
over the differences between the windows and the chromebooks keyboards if you look at those you'll
notice right away that there are different keys there and they're a little bit different spots
now you'll notice that hey where's my caps lock key and where's my delete key where's my other
keys on my chromebook well it is easy to find them to use shortcuts and here's a shortcut that
i actually gave you is ctrl alt and then slash and whenever you press that within a chromebook then
you get a new window that pops up and has all the shortcuts that you can search through and find the
one that you need and after using the chromebook for a few days those new shortcuts should be right
there and you won't have to be using the shortcut anymore to find that shortcut list then i go over
using the internet and i introduce the url address box up there and we go online and we actually go
to different locations and we we go in and we act like we're buying books and other things
and i warn the students now you have to watch where you're going on the euro address box
there should always be a padlock in the front of the address showing you that you're going to
a secure location or a secured site and that's really important before you enter in any type
of information such as a credential information password information like that that type of stuff
and that will help you know that you're in a secured site or not hey and here's something else
i thought i would add the other day someone asked me how to remove those url suggestions that appear
below the euro box as you're typing in a new address well it's really easy all you got to do is
take your mouse and when you see the suggestions as you see i'm typing up here go ahead and just
take your mouse and click on the little x next to the suggestion and that suggestion is gone
and you'll you won't see it any longer so it's really easy to remove those uh url suggestions
by clicking on the x so there are other skills that we covered there in lesson number one but
you can always go back to lesson one and actually see the full video if you need to let's jump into
lesson number two here we are in lesson number two now lesson number two goes beyond the basics
so that the stuff that was given in number one was the very basics you might consider that as
the foundation and lesson number two is the beyond the foundation maybe the walls of the house or
something like that and that's the way i build my lessons each lesson is built off of prior lesson
given off from the previous lesson number one is the very basics number two is going beyond the
basics and here we have terminology so we start with hardware terminology as you see there monitor
cpu cpu standing for central processing unit and i go over the case the box the tower
the keyboard and mouse and then we get into storage and i talk about um what storage
means and basically what data means and start saving all of your information there
then we go over what's called cloud storage and cloud storage is real important because now it's
a way for us to save our information in basically a virtual vote that's up in the internet and only
you can get into it because only you have the username and password to unlock that vote and get
into your data and this is nice too if if you're using a computer and that computer breaks well
what you can do is you can just buy a new computer and then log into your account such as your google
account or your microsoft account and then go into your google drive and there's all of your data
so in this lesson we're really going to be going in and talking about your google account
your gmail your google drive and how to use those apps and next we have software terms now
the first software term that we have there is os or operating system and the operating system
is the software that dictates the behavior of the device so if you have a smartphone maybe you have
android operating system that runs the device if you have a desktop computer maybe you have
windows 10 or macintosh operating system if you have a chromebook then you're running chrome os
so the software term that we have there number one is operating system and like i said that's
very important another term there is we have screen resolution so we go over many different
terms and i'm going to cover all of them but we do cover many different terms then we get into
setting up your google account now if you already have a google account you don't have to do that
but many people coming into the class for the first time they don't have a google account
so we make sure that they create one and that they have one made just for them with a very long
and complicated password that has letters both upper and lowercase numbers as well as symbols
and then i give them a little trick there in class of how to memorize very long passwords very easily
and then after creating their account basically i show them how to actually
get in and then be able to use the different apps such as the youtube google drive the gmail
google photos and the other google apps that are now given to them and one of the big things that
we cover in lesson number two is gmail we go over the interface we show you how to use it
and as you can see here in this interface you have gmail at the very top there and then below
that you have your your inbox now your inbox is divided into three main areas your primary
social and then your um promotions so your primary that would be uh holding off your email that you
receive from private parties your middle one there is social media and so if you get email from or
messages from social media boom it appears there and your last box is promotion that's is if you
a store sends you an email it appears there in promotions now the compose button there is mint
so that you can compose a new email so you click it and then this would open up another box for you
in front of your work you would key in the email address type in your message click on the blue
button that says send and boom you're sending off your email so it's really easy to create email
as far as checking the email all you have to do is just click on the subject line of any email
and then you click on the little arrow that would be over on the right hand side there's a kind of
like a little arrow there you click that that's called the reply arrow and you click that and
then you open ups at the bottom where you can then key in a message as a reply and then click on the
blue button to send it we then go over the google drive we talk about the elements of the google
drive and its interface and how to use it and all as well as all of its settings even show you
how to use it offline by going into the settings and then engaging what's called offline support
so the google drive is really important because that's basically where all of our files all of our
work gets stored the nice thing about the google drive 2 is is that it does not count google docs
or google sheets google slides it doesn't it doesn't count any of those files against your
storage so if you have a billion google docs it still says that you're not using any space
so you say well how can i use up space inside my google drive well if you
upload photos to your google drive it'll count that against you also if you upload
microsoft word documents or other types of files or programs you'll count that space against you
and there's many different skills that we do cover in lesson number two if you need to see it there's
the link above me and go ahead and click that if you need the to go over just beyond the basics
now let's go over to lesson number three hey now we're going into another territory lessons three
four five six seven and eight all cover google docs at the same time
i put in little mini lessons in there so that we also have lessons on google photos and other fun
apps that we can use those are part of the many lessons that fit in between the main lessons
so as you can see here here's google docs and on lesson three i would actually go over and go over
the basics of basically using google docs all the tools all that can do and then with the lessons
from four all the way to lesson eight i go in with practice so the students are actually creating
documents and learning those skills by actually doing now let's jump into lesson number nine
hey here we are in lesson number nine now as we were saying lessons three
through eight are all about google docs but there's also lessons in there about google
photos and other fun apps even installing apps well lesson 9 goes upon those skills
and shows you how to install microsoft office that is being microsoft word excel powerpoint
right onto your google account so you'll be able to use it right on your chromebook
and here in this lesson we're going over the different tools that are found in microsoft office
we go in and one of the things that we really require to use the microsoft office online is
to have a microsoft account the good thing is microsoft accounts are free so i go in i show
you how to set up the account again it's free and then show you how to go into the app store
and actually find the microsoft onedrive as well as the microsoft office apps there
once it's in your google account you actually will have access to it on your chromebook and have be
able to work with it that way in this lesson going over the tools i go over microsoft word tools
microsoft excel tools as well as the powerpoint tools which kind of set us up for going into
lesson number 10 which goes into using google sheets and it also has a little bit of a throwback
to this lesson where we're also looking at microsoft excel so let's jump into lesson 10
now now i group lessons 10 11 and 12 together because in those lessons i teach how to use
microsoft excel as well as google sheets now in lesson 10 i compare and contrast google sheets
with microsoft excel i show you how to use both of those applications in lesson 10 going over all
the tools and how they're similar and different between each other in lessons 11 and 12 i go
over working with actually creating projects using google sheets and so they'll be making
low charts low spreadsheets and workbooks in those lessons now there's many lessons in between
each of those videos as well and those kind of go into more detail with microsoft excel and
also with google sheets and i cover a few other topics and skills as well and there's lessons so
go ahead and check out you can check out lesson number 10 by clicking on the link above me there
now on to lessons 13 and 14. in those lessons i go over creating a presentation and right at
the very beginning of those lessons i show you microsoft's powerpoint i compare that to google
slides and i show them how they're similar and how they're different now when we create presentations
really you can have a lot of imagination there you can talk about a trip you could talk about a story
so really those lessons the students really get to be creative so hopefully you like those in
lesson 14 i go over how to create a slide like a pro and actually create a really nice presentation
it takes a long time it took me over a day to actually create that presentation but in the video
it's kind of shrunken down to a little over an hour and now on to lesson 15. now in lesson 15
i go over how to use a smartphone and link it with your google account so that you can have the exact
same data on your home computer as well as on your smartphone in fact to show you how to do your work
on your smartphone when you're away from home on a trip so it's kinda neat because
you can actually go into your google drive and then open up google docs and create or
edit a document right there on your smartphone the next thing i want to do is i want to thank
all of the wonderful students out there who have been turning in their work faithfully every week
and it's just it's a wonderful thing there to sit down go to my google drive go to the shared folder
and all this work would be there and turned in i really appreciate that and uh just it's wonderful
seeing how you've grown from lesson one through all the way to lesson 15 here and uh going from
the basics all the way to advanced and the skills with google docs google sheets and google slides
and i would recommend that you watch the other videos too that i have because i do cover other
skills and there's other things going on in the computer world that you can actually find out
about just by going to my channel hey if you like these types of videos please give it a thumbs up
