Mice and Men You have to talk with your computer. In one way or another you need to use an interface to change your words into actions in the digital world. In this lesson, the focus will be on what you can think and do with the mouse. Start Microsoft Word. When the Welcome window appears, please select a new, Blank Document. What do you see from the top of the screen? Is there a Title Bar with a little Microsoft Word icon? Is there a Home Ribbon with the Clipboard, Font and Paragraph Groups? Yes. If your screen looks similar to the example on this page, then you are ready to get started.
