    Activity
    15 Minutes
    Discuss with in your group about the
    characteristic of Computer and its
    components.
    Illustrate an image or diagram about how
    each components work to build a
    computer system.
    Learning Objectives
    By the end of this lesson all of you will;
    define the terms hardware, software, input
    device, storage device and output device;
    describe the purpose of input devices, storage
    devices and output devices;
    Software
    Software are the sets of instructions/
    programs that are loaded into the memory of
    the computer in order to perform a task or to
    control the operation of the computer.
    Systems Software Application Software
    Operating systems Word processors
    Utilities Web browsers
    User interface Game applications
    Dataware
    Data consist of individual facts or pieces of
    information that by themselves may not
    make much sense to a person.
    People Ware
    Computer Operators,
    Hardware
    Hardware are the physical components of a computer
    eg the input devices, output devices, primary storage
    (memory) and secondary storage (backing store),
    Central Processing Unit etc. Note that input and output
    devices are collectively known as peripherals.
    External Hardware Internal Hardware
    Monitor Hard drive
    Printer CPU
    Keyboard Fan
    Mouse Motherboard
    Microphone Sound card
    Computer Systems
    A computer system is
    one that is able to
    take a set of inputs,
    process them, and
    create a set of
    outputs. This is done
    using a combination
    of hardware and
    software.
    Input Device
    An input device is hardware that allows data
    to be entered into a computer.
    Manual Input Automatic Input
    Keyboard Barcode reader
    Mouse Sensor
    Microphone Magnetic stripe reader
    Scanner Optical mark reader (OMR)
    Storage
    A storage device is hardware that allows
    data to be saved, long-term, after it has
    been inputted into the computer. Examples
    include;
    Hard drive
    DVD
    CD
    Flash memory (USB)
    Output Devices
    A storage device is hardware that allows
    data to be saved, long-term, after it has
    been inputted into the computer. Examples
    include;
    Monitor
    Printer
    Projector
    Speakers
    Input Devices
    The purpose of an input device is to provide
    data in a computer system ready for
    processing.
    Storage Devices
    The purpose of a storage device to store data and
    software for later use. The storage device will make
    some use of physical effect to represent the data.
    CD, DVD, Blu-Ray a laser burns dark pits onto the medium.
    Each pit is a binary digit.
    Hard drives and magnetic tape use magnetic domains to
    represent data.
    Flash drive use electric charge to store the data

    A primary storage device is the main computer storage


    device, and a secondary device is one where you can
    also store files, but is not the main storage you use.
    Output Devices
    Output is the stage where the information
    obtained by the processing is presented to
    the user in a suitable format. Examples
    include;
    A printout of exam grades
    A digital display on a petrol pump
    A sound from a smoke alarm
    Assessment 1/2
    1. Home computers are used more extensively than
    ever for tasks such as banking, investing, shopping,
    and communicating. Do you see this trend as
    having a positive or a negative impact on our
    society and economy? Do you plan to use a
    computer in these ways? Why or why not?
    2. Describe your experience with computers so far.
    Have you worked with (or played with? Computers
    before? If so, Why? Has your past experience with
    computers influenced your decision to study them?
    Note: Underline the word that gives emphasize to your
    answer.
