2、rming up by talking about computer Look at the pictures on page 17. What are they? What do they have in common? Yes, they are computers. Then what is a computer? A computer is a machine which stores knowledge in its memory and does calculations on that knowledge. This knowledge is stored in symb

3、ols; it is called data. A computer usually has a monitor to show results. However, some computers can speak; these computers can be used for voice mail. Draw on the blackboard a diagram to illustrate the influence of the computer and the Internet over the school education．Below is a diagram you ma

4、y like to use．Ask students to look at the diagram and consider, ”What changes have computers and the Internet brought to schools? What changes will they bring to schools in the future?”Ask the Ss to work in groups and to make a list of the possible changes they can think of．When most of the groups h

5、ave their lists ready, the teacher can hold a class discussion．Write down the major changes the students think of under / beside the diagram．The teacher can add one or two changes that may affect their own teaching．For example, “Computers and the Internet can help busy parents contact teachers by em

7、 requires a boot device. The boot device contains the computer’s operating system and data. Computer programs can be installed onto a computer.

8、nd and receive data and email across the world. 曙光3000巨型計算機 A computer is now almost always an electronic device. It usually contains materials which are toxic; these materials will become toxic waste when disposed of. When a new computer is purchased in some places, laws require that the cost o

9、f its waste management must also be paid for. This is called product stewardship. In some countries old computers are recycled (melted down) to get gold and other metals. This is dangerous, because this procedure releases the toxic waste into the water and soil. Computers become obsolete quickly

10、. Very often they are given away and new ones replace them within two or three years. This makes the problem worse. Computer recycling is thus common. Many projects try to send working computers to developing nations so they can be re-used and will not become waste as quickly. Computer jargon 計算機行

11、話 Computer jargon means words to do with computers and surrounding topics. Knowing what these words mean can help you know more about computers. Some people use these words to impress other people (Also known as buzzwords). Examples of jargon: Bit - The smallest data unit, can either be a “0.”

12、 or a “1.”. Byte - unit of data. See also Kilobyte, Megabyte, Gigabyte and Nibble CPU –Central Processing Unit, Another name for processor Data - Information stored on a computer Disk - A place to store data. Email - Electronic mail. GHz - Gigahertz. Used often incorrectly to describe th

15、t computer? ●Electronic machine capable of performing calculations and other manipulations of various types of data, under the control of a stored set of instructions. The machine itself is the hardware; the instructions are the program or software. Depending upon size, computers are called mainfr

16、ames, minicomputers, and microcomputers. Microcomputers include desk-top and portable personal computers. ●A multi-function electronic device that can execute instructions to perform a task. ●A device that accepts information, processes it, and supplies an output. A computer usually contains mem

17、ory, a control unit, arithmetic and logical units, and a means for input and output. ●a programmable hardware component that is controlled by internally stored programs and that can perform substantial computations (including arithmetic and logic operations) without human intervention. A computer

18、typically consists of one or more processing units, memory units, and associated peripheral input and output devices. ●Related to automation and electronic data processing. The Library of Congress commonly classes most computer-related books in HF5548, QA75-76, Z52, T385, and some TK ranges. ●a

They’re a much more useful and humane tool than the phone, and with corporate America behind them the networks will be everywhere----changing our lives more than any technolog

23、y since the automobile. Joining a computer network is the same as joining a community. Small systems are like villages, where new members are formally welcomed. The larger networks, the Source and CompuServe, for example, are cities-anonymous, full of life and events, but difficult to fit into.
