That is a good idea. I will add that the technical support phone number or/and the email address should be every where, so the students with less computer skills can use other ways to get help.
Anthony:
This is a avlid suggestion. Please share with us a list of the kinds of skills on which the assessment should be based.

Before a student is enrolled in an online course, he/she should have to pass some kind of test that exhibit fundamental skills required for the course.
Rosie-
A how to file is very helpful to students. Would you share that with us?
Thank you!

Rosie,
That is a wonderful idea, especially for the more mature learners. These computer skills are harder for them to grasp because the technology was not available in primary school for them. I will utilize your ideas.

Rosie:
You have taken the right course of action to correct for the computer literacy defeciency. You may want to suggest to your learning institution that they make those tutorials available to students as soon as they enroll for the course so that they would have time to practice and build those skills.

Rosie,
That is a geat idea. I bet that your students that are lacking in computer skills greatly appreciate that.
