Synopsis

Ken Abernethy and Tom Allen take an entirely fresh look at the introductory computing course, and teach the skills readers need to understand, create, work and communicate using digital media and networks. While most computer users are proficient in word processing, the worlds of image processing, digital sound, multimedia presentations, know-bots, MUDs, and MOOs are undiscovered territory for many. To be able to use these new and interesting capabilities, computer users must achieve a new standard of computer literacy. The computer literacy standard presented in this book is more dynamic and more conceptual than those of the past. The authors show how the computer and its associated devices and networks - or the digital domain - provides a new and fundamental communications paradigm for the twenty-first century.
