BASIC COMPUTER

On the first day of  micro teaching, the topic I chose to teach is Basic Computer

A computer is an electronic device that manipulates information, or data. It has the ability to store, retrieve, and process data. You may already know that you can use a computer to type documents, send email, play games, and browse the Web. You can also use it to edit or create spreadsheets, presentations, and even videos.

INPUT DEVICE

In computing, an input device is a piece of equipment used to provide data and control signals to an information processing system, such as a computer or information appliance. Examples of input devices include keyboards, computer mice, scanners, cameras, joysticks, and microphones.

Characteristics of Keyboard

• The keyboard has various functions keys for a different purpose
• Instead of using the mouse, we can utilize the arrow keys on the keyboard to do the same purpose as the mouse.
• The main keyboard, cursor keys, numeric keypad, and function keys are the four primary components of a keyboard.
• Keyboards are more affordable.
