What computer knowledge is required to take a class in the DWRL?
Not much. Since the focus of DWRL courses is studying English composition and/or literature, we do not ask for much prior knowledge of computers or software—just some familiarity with common word processing programs. In fact, the DWRL is often a good place to learn new computer skills. Although classes vary in the teaching and use of available software technology, students taking DWRL courses are free to learn any of the wide variety of programs provided on DWRL machines during the DWRL’s open hours.
