Our IT course at Ordsall Community Cafe are coming to an end for the summer holidays. No doubt a lot of people will miss our Tuesday sessions and September seems a long way away. We have all given an appraisal of our efforts and experiences of the course over the last couple of months.
We are all hoping that the courses will resume in September as many of us have reached a certain level and would like to continue on our chosen paths to use this wonderful technology which has opened up a whole new world. All of the outside world would be lost without the 'www's', ' log on' to this and that, instant images of events around the world almost before they have happened.
It has been a very satisfying glimpse into a world which before these classes was very alien to those who left school before computerisation became the norm!! Who knows what hidden talents can be brought out and encouraged once we have mastered the mouse skills, and the computer jargon, and the available programmes. The world is now our oyster and only depends on how much effort you yourself want to put into it and which direction each individual wants to go.
Without the right tutor and his support for all our aspirations, large or small, we would not have got as far as we have. Thanks to the sponsors MCIN and Ordsall Community Cafe for the venue.

Hi there, it's mick here over at the social media centre in Salford. I'm really hopeful that we can work together to come up with a system that keeps the drop ins going and then adds other areas of learning to the IT suite there as well.
Hopefully see you soon!
Mick
