Customer Reviews

internet and email for seniors4
Excellent text with screenshots easy to follow.
Not a deep coverage, but certainly gets seniors going.
We use it as a recommended text for our seniors courses.

Internet and E-mail for Seniors5
This is a good and simple book, easy to read and understand for seniors or any beginners for that manner. I'd recommend any of Addo Stuur books on computers. They really help me.

Basic skills training4
This is a good self-paced training manual, although akward to handle. The step-by-step procedures are fine for XP and Vista, and easy to understand. Just the Internet...Just the facts...simple (few right clicks offered.)
I suggest teaching the E-Mail chapters BEFORE the SEARCH chapters, for that is what the students want.
Poor quality print and paper makes the screen shots a little hard to read, but the procedure is good.
