The local economy where i grew up is going to shit, and I've had a few of my family members come to me curious about bringing in income online. That I can help them with, but at least one of them could really use some improvement in basic computer literacy first - she's sharp but behind the times.
At first I was going to send her to the local adult ed school, but group classes are a traditionally slow way to learn and generally paced for the lowest common denominator population rather than those who soak up new info fast - this stuff isn't exactly rocket science. Plus, if she needs to develop the self-motivation to get shit done online, she might as well get started there with her learning instead of relying on a live environment.
Can anyone recommend a good resource for basic computer literacy training through the web? YouTube is an obvious go-to, but we're talking about newbs to the web and I don't want her going on wild goose chases on every marketing funnel she comes across.
At least at this stage of the game, I just want to send her to a credible, structured resource that'll teach her computer/internet basics so she has some ground to stand on before studying more valuable skillsets.

"The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe.
To be your own man is a hard business. If you try it, you'll be lonely often, and sometimes
frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself." - Kipling
