There are many ways to use a computer in today's society. The most common are: desktop PC, laptop, tablet, mobile phone. There are other devices that act as computers but we are focusing on the most common devices in use. There are also different types of operating systems too, the most common are: Windows, Android and Apple. It is possible to use all 3 systems, this depends on the devices you own / use. Although all 3 are different, there are commonalities between them too. Some of the knowledge you have from learning one system will be transferrable.
You may feel like you don't want to learn new computer skills or that they won't be useful. Technology can be frightening but it can also be wonderful. At Breakthrough Too, we recognise it can be a big step to decide to learn new skills and so we personalise learning with you. We will work with you to find out what you want to learn and then discuss what else we think you might need to know or be interested in. However, we won't bombard you with lots of new information in one go! With technology it is important to practice your new skill and feel confident in that before learning the next part.
