a.Motivation –

COOPERATION SQUARES

: Divide into groupsof 6 (5 will participate and one will observe). Give each group an envelope containing
all of the puzzle pieces. Each person is to be randomly given 3 pieces. Without talking each person
is to assemble a six inch square using the pieces given and any others voluntarily given to him or her by
other participants. At the end of the exercise, each participant will have a six inch square in front of him
or her.
b.Discussion / Demonstration

Unlocking difficulties:

Guide questions: 1.What are the parts of a basic computer? 2.What will be the steps to follow in
assembling a computer? 3.How to test if the computer is working?

PARTS OF A COMPUTER

System unit – is an enclosure of all the main interior components of a computer. Monitor– a display screen
used to provide visual output from a computer, typically a Liquid Crystal Display or a Light Emitting Diode
monitor.

Keyboard – is a typewriter style device, which uses an arrangement of buttons or keys to act as
mechanical levers or electronic switches.

Mouse – is an input device that is most often with a personal computer. Voltage Regulator – a device
connected between the power source and a load, which provides a constant voltage despite
variations in input voltage or output load.

STEPS IN ASSEMBLING A COMPUTER

Step 1:

Check all peripherals. Wires, connectors and AC plug should be complete.

Step 2: Connect the VGA cord from the monitor, to the system unit. An HDMI cable can also be used if
available.

Step 3: Connect the USB mouse and keyboard to the system Unit.

Step 4: Plug the AC cord of the monitor to the voltage regulator.

Step 5: Plug the AC cord of the system unit to the voltage regulator.

Step 6: Plug the voltage regulator to the wall outlet, and then turn the power on.

Step 7: Power on the system unit and the monitor.

Step 8: Once the computer is on, check if the mouse and the keyboard is working by clicking an icon or
typing in a document.

c. Closing Activities

i. Generalization Assembling a computer is a process in which we combined all the needed parts of a
computer to be functional. Also, a part of this is that we analyze the correct procedure, placement of
function of each part in order to make a computer functional and ready for use.

ii. Value Integration

Innovativeness Following the instruction Efficiency Productivity

iii. Application

Simultaneous Demonstration

The teacher will demonstrate the procedure of assembling a computer together with the
selected students following the procedure simultaneously.

Directions: Research on other parts of a computer aside from the ones that has been discussed, cut out
pictures of these parts and paste it on a ¼ illustration board. Aside from the pictures, also indicate the
name and function of each part. Be creative. To be submitted next meeting.
