About this course

Understanding Introduction to Computing for your Woodmont credit.

What is Introduction to Computing?

Introduction to Computing is a survey course that explains how computers and software work at a practical level. It covers the main kinds of software people use every day, how operating systems and file systems organize work, how hardware parts fit together, and how data is stored and managed in databases. It also introduces the history of computing and the social effects of new technologies.

How the course teaches you

The course is a self-paced online survey built on video lessons, with quizzes, assignments, and a final exam. Each component carries 25% of the grade (Attendance, Quizzes, Assignments, and Final Exam), and the completed course generates the transcript credit that Woodmont recognizes as Technology Requirement (Systems & Solutions).

How it helps beyond the classroom

The skills here apply to everyday office work, including building documents and presentations, working with databases, troubleshooting hardware, and understanding how operating systems and file systems keep work organized. At Woodmont, the 3 credits count toward the Technology Requirement (Systems & Solutions), so they fit into the BS in Technology, BS in Business, and BS in Psychology degree plans, where basic software and data literacy is useful regardless of major.

Skills you walk away with

Use word processing, presentation, and multimedia tools for practical tasksCompare features and limits of common application softwareIdentify operating systems, security protocols, and other systems softwareNavigate command line interfaces and file systemsRecognize core hardware components and troubleshoot basic system issuesExplain binary representation, data storage, RAID arrays, and database management systemsAssess the social, economic, and privacy impacts of computing technologies

Taking this course toward Woodmont

After a student completes the course, the transcript is sent to Woodmont College, where the registrar applies the credit as Technology Requirement (Systems & Solutions). Because this is a general-education equivalency, the credit satisfies a gen-ed requirement, so students should check their Woodmont degree plan to see which requirement it fills before registering for another technology course. Woodmont accepts up to 84 credits (70%) in transfer, and this 3-credit course counts toward that ceiling along with any other UPI Study courses the student transfers.

Who this course is for

This suits students who already have some college credit and want to fill a general-education gap at Woodmont without sitting through a comparable survey on campus. Working adults fitting coursework around jobs and students watching tuition costs both tend to benefit, since the course satisfies a gen-ed requirement and transfer credit can cover up to 84 credits (70%) of a degree. It is not a good fit for students looking for hands-on programming instruction, because this is a survey of how software and hardware work rather than a coding course, and it is not suited to anyone who needs a live, instructor-led format.
