THE H.N.D. BUSINESS AND FINANCE GUIDE TO.....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This week on `The HND Business and Finance Guide to....' we will give
the ultimate guide to using a word processor.....
[Hold up disk and show to class]
This is a disk. (No shit - class).
[Point at disk drive]
This is a disk drive. (No shit - class).
The disk goes into the disk drive. (No shit - class).
To put the disk into the disk drive, hold the disk by the label and
put it into the drive metal bit first. (No shit - class).
(The class has now loaded up the word processing program.......)
Now class, you will notice that the cursor, that's the flashing square
(No shit - class), is at the top of the screen.
[Draw a down arrow on the board].
This is what a down key looks like. (No shit - class).
If you press this key the cursor will move down the screen. (Well,
whadya know, it does - class).
You can call me ignorant, or some other big word (How about
anthropomorphize .... that's a pretty big word - Ed with dictionary),
but for people that have got nine or more G.C.S.E.'s and maybe a
couple of `A' levels doesn't this seem a bit patronising. Even though
some of the class may not have done Computer Studies, I think they
will probably know what a disk looks like, how to put it into a disk
drive and what a down key looks like and what it does to a cursor.
( OH BUGGER ! I THOUGHT I'VE JUST PUT THE )
( DISK THINGY IN THE TOASTER !- Ed )
