Extension Classes on Computers Offered

Novices and advanced Internet users alike will have the opportunity to learn more about computers in several specialized classes offered by Pierce College Extension beginning Monday.

The three-hour classes and workshops are primarily single sessions, but at least one meets twice this month. Topics range from how to set up a World Wide Web site for a business to how to use a CD-ROM.

In one class, computer novices can learn basic computer concepts and terminology.

The two-session course is scheduled for 7 to 10 p.m. Monday and Oct. 13. Registration is $35.

A second class will help seniors access the Internet by showing them in nontechnical ways how to find information on topics of interest.

The class will be held from 7 to 10 p.m. Oct. 21. Registration is $49.

Another Internet workshop offers advanced users lessons on putting a Web site for a business on the Internet, with an emphasis on using Microsoft FrontPage 97, software commonly used to create World Wide Web sites.

The workshop will be held from 7 to 10 p.m. Oct. 22. Registration is $60.

A more general class on surfing the Internet will help users find information, chat with other users, follow a hobby, find a job or use the computer for fun.

The class is scheduled from 7 to 10 p.m. Nov. 5. Registration is $35.
