Taking a shortcut: useful keyboard shortcuts to make life easier

I have mixed feelings about shortcuts. As a driver, a shortcut to a destination can either be a timesaver or a frustrating “tour of the city.” Google Maps has taken me down some interesting routes, with the only benefit being that I now know where certain roads end. When it comes to my students, I’m not fond of shortcuts because they usually lead to less quality work.

However in terms of working on my computer, I LOVE shortcuts, especially keyboard ones! These are 2-3 button combinations on your keyboard that allow you to do various tasks that your mouse would typically do. They keep your hands on the keyboard rather than having to stop to use the mouse to click on one spot, and then have to put your hands on the keyboard again!
