Prerequisite Knowledge: Learners have ideas about computers functions like laptops and desktops.
SPECIFIC OUTCOMES: (LSBAT):
1) Define the term CPU
2) Describe the basic functions of the CPU
3) State the components of the CPU
4) State the functions of the control unit (CU)
The functions of the ALU Teacher writes Pupils listen Teachers 15min
This is the component of a CPU that brief notes on and copy brief exposition

handles all the computational jobs of a
books
computer.
The ALU acts a calculator, performing
arithmetic operations such as
addition, subtraction, multiplication,
division and logical comparisons such
as deciding whether two numbers are
equal.
Values are used to measure the speed of the CPU
The speed of the CPU is measured in either
Gigahertz (GHz) or Megahertz (MHz). For
example
1 Megahertz is 1000,000 hertz, which
means the CPU performs 1 million actions
per second.
1 Gigabytes is 1000,000,000 which means
the CPU performs 1 billion actions per
second.
Today modern CPU run at the speed of
2.8 GHz meaning it can perform
2,800,000,000 actions per second.

RATIONALE: This is lesson number six on Computers. Teacher Exposition, Question and answer and class/group
discussion methods will be used this lesson will develop learners knowledge’s about computer memory. The skill of
identifying memory parts of a computer .learners will gain value of Awareness about computer memory.
Prerequisite Knowledge: Learners have basic ideas about computers functions.
SPECIFIC OUTCOMES: (LSBAT):
1) Define the term primary memory of a computer
2) Explain the various types of primary memory
3) State the functions of the various types of primary memory control units
The various types of primary memory: Teacher writes Pupils listen Teachers 15min
brief notes on and copy brief exposition
Random Access Memory (R.A.M): This is a form of
the board notes in their
computer storage which stores data and machine code
currently being used. RAM memory is volatile; this books
means that the memory loses data when power is
switched off. Because of this, it is advisable to save
your work on the disc say every 10-20 minutes when
you are typing a large document on your computer.
Read Only Memory (ROM):This is a built in computer Teacher puts Pupils Discussion 10min
memory containing data that normally can only be pupils in small participate
read, not written to or changed in any way. It is groups to and ask Methods
permanent memory and non- volatile. This type of discuss questions
memory does not lose data when power is switched off.
On-board-catch memory
This is a very high speed memory that the control unit
can access very quickly and use for intermediate
storage. Further, data and instructions can be loaded
into the cache before they are actually needed. When
they are needed, the transfer is much faster than it
would have been if RAM had been used. It is referred
to as, memory in waiting e.g. when you press print, it
will ask for how many copies.
