This 8-chapter book, Basic Computing Concepts-All-in-One Beginner's Guide to Computer Proficiency 4th Edition is intended to offer beginners in computer technology a way to build a solid foundation through grassroot learning techniques that will effectively empower them to become proficient in basic computing. The unique features of this book that sets it aside from other similar book in the marketplace include but are not limited to the following:
- Authenticity: This book is authentic; it is written with my demonstrated hands on practice and taught to my former students for 5 years with extraordinary success. The new updates in this 4th edition ensure that system functionalities produce the desired results when prompted. No vagueness or confusions.
- No Assumptions as to Learner's Level of Prior Computer Knowledge: I employed a grassroot approach to learning by starting from scratch to teach so that beginners obtain new knowledge and informed users improve their knowledge.
