Learning computer<br />
skills simple and fun<br />
While today’s technology can seem<br />
daunting to those that haven’t been exposed<br />
to it, gaining computer skills is not only<br />
simpler than you might think, it can also<br />
open up a whole new world of knowledge,<br />
convenience and enjoyment.<br />
For those aged 55 and over, Seniornet<br />
New Brighton offers a range of computer<br />
courses provided by skilled tutors, in a<br />
friendly, relaxed environment. The topics<br />
include: An introduction to computers,<br />
learning to use an iPad or other tablet, using<br />
email, Facebook and Trade Me, as well<br />
as photography courses where you learn<br />
how to enhance your digital photos using<br />
Lightroom software. The tutors are hoping<br />
Photoshop software will be available for<br />
classes in the next few weeks.<br />
They also teach Publisher, a software<br />
programme that enables you to produce<br />
newsletters, flyers etc.<br />
Classes run from 10am-12pm, Tuesday,<br />
Wednesday and Thursday, with this year’s<br />
classes starting on Tuesday <strong>February</strong> 12.<br />
You are invited to bring your own device<br />
– laptop, tablet or smartphone – although<br />
there are desktop computers available if<br />
required.<br />
