Students receive instruction to establish skills in Internet research, Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint), and keyboarding. The foundation skills of using technology as a tool for research, analysis, organization, and expression, prepare Noble students to use these skills throughout their high school, college, and work careers. Most assignments require some use of a computer.
