A course syllabus and descriptive outline are provided for an introductory, three-credit college course at Lon Morris College, Jacksonville, Texas, covering logical operations and the development of basic algorithmic processes using the BASIC computer programming language. Overall goals, specific objectives, and a brief description of lesson content, enabling activities, and resource materials are included for the lessons in three units. The individual units cover: (1) computer vocabulary, computer history, and computer design; (2) system operation, beginning BASIC programming, and computer careers; and (3) home computer uses, computer applications, and software usage. The course is intended to provide an introduction to computers for all noncomputer science majors at Lon Morris College and is structured so that students have the opportunity to relate computers to their own interests.
