GCF Global offers this collection of free online tutorials relating to various types of internet skills, including basic internet use, online safety, social media, and email, as well as a series of tutorials dedicated to Google apps. These self-paced resources may especially appeal to adult learners who are new to internet use and to educators working with these populations, but even internet users with some experience may find helpful tips here. For example, in the Internet Safety tutorial (located under Online Safety), readers will find explanations of Your Browser's Security Features and Understanding Browser Tracking, among others. Each tutorial uses words and images to explain each internet skill, and several of them also include links to a YouTube playlist for those who prefer video tutorials. At the end of each tutorial, learners can take a short quiz to test their knowledge and understanding. These tutorials were created at the GCF Global headquarters in Durham, North Carolina, as part of GCFLearnFree, a program of the Goodwill Community Foundation and Goodwill Industries of Eastern North Carolina.
