A chalk board is a tool and similarly a computer should be understood as a tool for conducting your task i.e. the lecture.\n\nYou can overcome some limitations of a black board using a computer. Black board being static, you can create dynamic examples using a computer to aid your explanations.\n\nIf you are using a computer to just create animations for text that you write on the board, like the case of many lines of text that blast on to the screen one after the other in case of news headlines being displayed, I think the use of computer would degrade your lecture rather than improve it.\n\nA computer can never replace the lecturer or the black board.  \n\nDoesn't using written placards instead of writing on the board create a low opinion about the lecturer/teacher in the minds of the student.\n\nhttp://wwww.futureaccountant.com/\nhttp://www.schoolingkids.com/

This is an impossible question to answer. The "paper clip" would be part of some user interface, on a site or in an e-mail client. Without knowing what you're using (such as a particular web site or e-mail client), there is no way of answering this question.

Don't take your computer to the Geek Squad because of a copy/paste problem. They'll charge you like crazy for a simple problem.\n\nYou may be trying to paste something where it can't be pasted to. Example:\n\nYou can't paste text into an image-editing tool.\n\nYou can't paste images into a text-editing tool (Word processors aren't considered text-editors).\n\nIf you're absolutely sure you're pasting the right data into the right program, and still having no luck, restart your computer, as your clipboard might have become corrupted. If it's still having problems, look around on the Internet for information on how to re-install certain Windows software. You DO NOT need to re-install ALL of Windows. Just the Clipboard software, which can be found right on the disc that should've come with your computer, containing Windows.

Usually, if you're about to view a clip, the site will have a box next to or around it letting you know where and how to save it. Otherwise, before you click on the link, right-click on it with your mouse and choose "save-as" and see if it will allow you to save it to your computer. Another possibility is that when you click on it, a dialogue box will pop up and ask if you want to run the clip or save it.

Is the copied text showing up in the clipboard? You can check it out by running the clipboard viewer (assuming you're running windows). Go to the start menu, click on Run, and type 'clipbrd.exe'.\n\nNow select something and press ctrl+C. It should show up in the clipboard viewer.\n\nIf it does show up, try hitting ctrl+V to paste the text.

It will show you a "context menu."  That is, a general utility menu that is sensitive to where your cursor is when you click.  Generally useful stuff like cut, copy and paste are there, but also things like "save picture as" for jpg files, etc.  It's the context that determines what menu you get.

cut: hold "ctrl" and x\n\ncopy: hold "ctrl" and c   (i would personally use this instead of cut, because it leaves the material on the page)\n\npaste hold "ctrl" and v

I use them all the time!!!\n\nWhen I'm on Google and decide something I'm searching for would be better put into quotation marks, home gets me to the front of the sentence, end gets me to the end.  So much faster than using a mouse.\n\nPup and Pdown I use when I don't feel like reaching for my mouse.  I know, how lazy.  But I already have my hands on the keyboard, so I'll pdown to look at a website without having to scroll or hold down anything on the mouse or even spin a wheel.\n\nInsert is nice when working in MSWord.\n\nDelete is really the only thing I don't use... just when I need to shut something down that isn't working.

Using your mouse, place the cursor at the beginning of the text you want to move so that you can highlight the text. Click and hold down the left mouse button and drag the cursor to the end of the text that you want to move. This will highlight (darken) the text. You now have several ways to cut the selection:\n\n1)      Click on the Cut icon (the scissors) on the toolbar, or\n\n2)      Select Cut from the Edit Menu at the top of the screen, or\n\n3)      Press and hold down the Ctrl key and press the X key at the same time, or\n\n4)      Press the Delete key.\n\nThe text will disappear.\n\nAfter you have cut the text, place your cursor at the location where you want the text to be displayed. Again, there are several choices to "paste" the text:\n\n1)      Click on the Paste icon (the clipboard on the toolbar), or\n\n2)      Select Paste from the Edit Menu at the top of the screen, or\n\n3)      Press and hold down the Ctrl key while pressing the V key at the same time.\n\nAny of these three choices will "paste" the selection in the new location.\n\nIf you want to copy some text and place it in another location, select the text as mentioned above. To copy:\n\n1)      Click on the Copy icon (the two pieces of paper on the toolbar), or\n\n2)      Select Copy from the Edit Menu at the top of the page, or\n\n3)      Press and hold down the Ctrl key while pressing the C key at the same time.\n\nTo Paste a copy of the text into a new location, follow the Paste directions above.\n\nBehind the Scenes\n\nWhen you use the Cut or Copy functions, the information is stored in the computer’s memory in an area called the Clipboard. Although you cannot see the information, it remains in the computer Clipboard until you use the Copy or Cut command again, at which time the information that was previously in the Clipboard is overwritten with the latest information that you just copied. Newer Microsoft Office Products, like Microsoft Word, allow you to keep more than one item in the Clipboard at one time.
