Prepare the Web team 

It s important to make sure that everyone on the Web team knows Windows well. A 

working knowledge of Windows makes it much easier to learn programs that run on it. 

Assess the computer knowledge of team members 

Each member of the Web team should 

be familiar with: 

How directories work 

File extensions 

Windows Explorer  

Basic word processing 

A large percentage of people who take Web publishing classes aren t proficient with 

computers, even if they say they are. Before Web training begins, it s a good idea to give 

each member of the Web team a quick test. Ask them to perform the following tasks: 

Create a folder on their computer s hard drive 

Create a folder within a folder 

Name the file extension of a Microsoft Word or Corel Word Perfect 

document (.doc or .wpd, respectively)
