1. Pointing
Sliding the mouse on the mouse pad moves the pointer on the screen. Rest your hand
on the mouse, move it slowly around the mouse pad, and see what happens
to the arrow on the screen.
2. Clicking
Gently pressing the left mouse button,
is one way to give the computer a command to do something. This is called clicking.
Words or text can also be links to other pages. Move the pointer this
underlined word and notice that the arrow changes to a pointing hand. This means the text is also a
link to another destination. Click the left mouse button to follow this link.
