CS 120 - Degree Requirement

While pursuing an AA degree in Computer Aided Design, I am required to take an Introduction to Computers class.  Having worked extensively over the past 10 years on computers in my career, I didn't think that I would learn much during this term.  I have to tell you, I have already learned things in this class that have made my time in front of the computer more productive.  I look forward to learning more tricks and shortcuts.  When do we get around to search techniques?

"Why wonder, when you can Google?"

Is this Britain’s oldest gamer?

 

Are you one who believes that playing video games is an unhealthy waste of time?  That they are detrimental to the physical and mental well-being of those who play them?  Then allow me to introduce you to Kathleen "Kit" Connell, who recently celebrated her 100^th birthday.  Kit spends at least two hours every day playing games on her Nintendo DS.  She lives alone, managing to care for herself despite being a double amputee, having lost both of her legs.  She claims that playing video games has helped her be more mentally and socially active and, most importantly, they bring joy to her life.  Kit is living proof that games, despite common criticism of being a harmful form of escapism are instead, actively adding value to peoples’ real lives.
