Title: Assessing change after a computer course for at-risk students
Abstract: In this paper, I plan to describe a computer literacy course that I teach as part of a Prefreshman summer session for at-risk students. The aims of the course are to teach students how to use computers for all their coursework and to encourage students to be comfortable using technology. I surveyed students on their attitude towards computers both before and after the course to see whether the course succeeded in achieving its goals.
