The most common application software programs are used by millions every
day and include:
Microsoft suite of products (Office, Excel, Word, PowerPoint, Outlook, etc.)
Internet browsers like Firefox, Safari, and Chrome
Mobile pieces of software such as Pandora (for music appreciation), Skype
(for real-time online communication), and Slack (for team collaboration)
Popular Application Software Add-Ons
There are different ways to access your application. Here are some of the ways
to open a program or application:
4. Run Dialog
You can also use the Run dialog to quickly launch applications. Open it by
pressing WinKey+R.
In the Run dialog, type the name of a program’s .exe file and press Enter to
launch it. For example, type firefox and press Enter to launch Firefox or type chrome
and press Enter to launch Chrome.
Working through the desktop is very easy using the mouse. The standard
mouse has two buttons plus a scroll wheel in the middle (which also sometimes
includes a button). Most mice have just two operations: right and left click. Left-click
is often referred to as “normal-click” or simply just "click". Most tasks on a computer
can be accomplished using the left mouse button only. Pressing the left mouse button
simulates the mouse cursor being pressed down on the screen - you can drag items
or select text and open files.
The right mouse button (or the right-click) is less understood and seldom used
by some people, however, it is one of the most valuable tools on the computer. It
provides additional functionality to the mouse. The essential purpose of the right
mouse button is to provide information about what you are clicking on. It is often
used to open contextual menus, which are pop-up menus that can change depending
on where you click. If the left mouse button directly interacts with an object, the right
mouse button often allows you to indirectly interact. Right-clicking a file provides a
list of operations on the file, or the ability to display its properties. Right-clicking on
your desktop background allows you to modify the desktop, and so on.
If your mouse or trackpad is broken, or you just don't want to use it, you'll
need to get familiar with common shortcuts. Most programs, regardless of the
operating system or browser you're using, let you employ the "tab" key to hop
between on-screen options in order, hit "enter" to launch a command, and scroll with
the arrow keys. "Home" and "end," meanwhile, will generally take you to the top or
bottom of the page, respectively. Each operating system has its own shortcuts, so
focus on the one you use most often.
Cross-platform apps such as Google Chrome also tend to use the same
shortcuts regardless of the user's operating system, but their developers have to play
along with computer manufacturers' quirks. MacOS users, for example, would use
(command+T) to open a new tab, while those on Windows or Linux would hit (ctrl+T).
Still, while there may be many similarities, you shouldn't assume one shortcut
translates to another program.
Once you’ve identified your most commonly used programs, keep a list of
shortcuts handy and practice using them. Often, they’re a little faster than using the
mouse, especially if it’s something you do a lot, such as returning to your Google
search results and trying the next link.
Windows 10
• Copy: Ctrl + C
• Cut: Ctrl + X
• Paste: Ctrl + V
MacOS
For Apple computers, mouse keys can be activated via "Full Keyboard Access,"
which doesn't require a keypad. That's a good thing because keypads are very much
optional accessories on Macs.
To enable this, go to the Apple menu, choose System Preferences, and then
Keyboard. Click Shortcuts, and at the bottom you should find "All Controls." Click
that and you'll enable mouse keys. Just remember it's the same layout as a keypad:
eight is up, two is down, four is left and six is right, with one, seven, nine and three
serving as diagonals.
If you don’t have a keypad, take some time to practice. Navigating via the line
of number keys at the top of your keyboard will feel odd at first, but it’s workable.
Ubuntu
Unlike most operating systems, Linux lets you ditch the desktop entirely and
use the command line interface (CLI) for everything, running code directly. Just hit
(ctrl+alt+T) to open a terminal or (alt+F2) to open the "run" application window, if you
already know what program you need. But if you're not looking to get this involved,
it's still easy to turn on mouse keys.
First, if you have a number lock key, hit (ctrl+shift+number lock) and press
the numbers to see if the pointer moves. If so, you're all set. If not, press (ctrl+alt+tab)
or the Super key, if you have one. This will open Activities. If you installed Ubuntu
on a Windows laptop, use the Windows key. Select Settings and then Universal
Access. Under Pointing and Clicking, you'll find Mouse Keys. Hit Enter to turn it on,
and you're set.
Keyboarding Techniques
Some people type as if they were born with a keyboard under their fingers,
while others struggle with even the simplest of words. If you’re part of the second
category, or even if you’re somewhere between categories, don’t worry there are
several effective typing techniques that can help you achieve an excellent typing
speed.
The most important technique to learn to type faster is touch typing. This is a
technique based on developing muscle memory for your fingers, and this is done by
combining several other typing techniques into it.
Looking at the keys? – At first, you will need to look at the keyboard, but in
time, the need to look at the keys as you type will diminish. Some will say that looking
3 Stages – Learning touch typing is done in three steps: first you learn the
home row of your keyboard, practice it until you know exactly where each letter is
and can easily place your fingers in the correct position without looking at the
keyboard.
After this, you will learn to master the rows above and below the home row,
the numbers row, and start practicing with special characters and upper case letters.
Finally, the fun part: practicing on real texts!
The home for fingers – It’s called the home row because this is the home
position for your fingers. This is the position that your fingers will return to after you
finish typing something, and this is the position from which you will learn how to
find all letters and characters on the keyboard.
Structure - The home row is the row starting with the Caps Lock key, and if you look
at your keyboard you will notice two small bumps or lines (depending on your
keyboard) on the “F” and “J” key.
Positioning – This is where your index fingers should reside. Your other fingers
should rest on the keys to the left of the “F” key, for your left hand, and on the keys
to the right of the “J” key, for your right hand.
Movements – By doing this, your pinky fingers should be resting on the “A” key and
on the “;” key. Your thumbs will hover above the space key, and you can use either
one to press it. Don’t try to use both at the same time, because it quickly gets
confusing, trust me!
Spend some time getting your fingers familiar with this position, and learning
the keys on the home row. Practice this typing technique each day, for several hours,
until you can hit each key on the home row without looking at the keyboard.
To make this easier, look for one of the numerous typing tools available online
that allow you to practice the home row. Once you are comfortable with the position
of the keys and you see that fingers automatically move to the key you want to hit,
you are ready to move on to the next step!
Place your fingers in their default position on the home row, and look at the
key above each of your fingers. For “F” this will be the “R” key, for “J” it will be the
“U” key, and so on. Each of your fingers should reach to the key directly above it,
and start memorizing it.
The only exception to this is your index fingers. They should be able to not
only reach the “F” and “J” keys, but also the keys “G“, “H“, and the keys directly
above those as well. This is because your index finger is the most mobile and it’s
easier to cover a larger number of keys with it.
Practice this typing technique until you know the top row just as well as the
home row. Now try practicing with a larger text, and you’ll discover that suddenly
you’re able to type a large number of words, without looking at the keyboard.
The bottom row is possibly the easiest row to master, because by now, due to
all the practice you’ve had, your fingers are much more used to the motions of typing,
and your muscle memory is starting to develop.
All you have to do is learn the new letters of the bottom row using the same
principles as the ones used for the top row. Now each of your fingers needs to learn
the keys directly below it. Practice, practice, and then practice some more, because
this is the final phase of your training!
After you’re satisfied with your progress and you’re able to type most regular
words without looking at the keyboard, it’s time to move on to the real deal: texts!
Exercising with words is fun, and it’s a perfect way of developing your finger
memory, but the real test is typing a large paragraph from a book. You can find online
tools for this as well, with some really diverse texts, perfect for getting you used to
chain words together.
The numpad requires a typing technique in its own right. If you look at the 5
key you will see the same raised bar as on the “F” and “J” key.
Unlike the home row, that is not the position for your index finger; it’s your
middle finger needs to be. Your index finger will rest on the “4” key, while your ring
finger will be on the “6” key.
The keys directly above and below each finger are also part of their motion
range, and the “+” or “Enter” key can be hit with either your pinky finger or your ring
finger. Your thumb is reserved for the “0” key, and I strongly encourage you not to
try to hit any other keys with it!
A well-performed and accurate typing technique will also help reduce the risk
of RSI (repetitive stress injury, which is also known as the carpal tunnel. This will
require correct hand positioning and smooth eye-finger muscle communication.
