Today we began a new unit called computer systems. We began by filling out the initial survey in which we had to rate certain aspects of our ability to learn and our knowledge of this unit. We then began by listing all of the parts of a computer that we know about. I could only list two parts which were the hard drive and motherboard.
We were then given a piece of hardware to define each. I had to define optical drive because this was probably the easiest piece of hardware to define. I then had to look up an image of an optical drive as well as a video of it working and talking about the specs of a CD, DVD and Blu Ray. I eventually did this task.
Finally I had to try out two different operating systems and locate certain things like how to remove an account and look at a computers specifications. The operating systems I used were Windows XP and Windows Vista. Tomorrow I plan on learning more about computer hardware so I can do the first task.
