NARRATIVE REPORT

Comp1 - Computer Fundamentals and Programming is complicated and difficult to understand, especially
to those who are not knowledgeable in computer. The learning that I gain from computer 1 is that you
have to be very careful because there are many theories, memorization and familiarization to do. In
chapter 1, I learned how the computer evolve from 500 B.C up to present and who, what, when they
invented these particular computers. In chapter 2, I learned how the data processes in the computer (Input
(Storage (Process (Storage (Output) and what are the components to use to process the data. In chapter 3,
in this topic there are numerous input devices to use for example the keyboard, pointing devices, voice
and video input, scanners and reading devices, digital cameras, and biometric input. At first, I thought that
the only input devices are the peripherals that found in the personal computer or PC. In chapter 4, there
several output devices to memorize these are the display, printer, fax machine, and multifunctional
peripherals, for me this is the easiest chapter of all the chapters that I encounter. In chapter 5, I learned
what are the components of the system unit and what are their function for example the Ram, function as
the temporary storage, SSD as the permanent storage, and the power supply that converts the AC power
to DC power. In chapter 6, I learned what are the Internet and the Computer Software. Internet is the
global information system and the Computer Software is the instructions, data or programs used to
operate computers and execute specific tasks. The of the example of software is the Operating System or
OS which control of all operations of the system. In chapter 7, I learned more about the shortcut keys for
example, Ctrl + a which means to select all, Ctrl + c which means to copy, and Ctrl + v which means to
paste. In programming I think this is the most difficult lesson that I encounter this whole semester
because I have to be careful to type if I don’t want to my program to become error.

My experience in Comp1 - Computer Fundamentals and Programming is not that easy at first, I thought I
know everything but the time when I saw the module, oh I need more to learn. The computer fundamental
is not that complicated because it is more memorization and familiarization but, when it comes to the
programming my head became blank. I need to go back to the module because I forgot what to do or what
to type, and I encounter errors when I run my program. But overall, I learned something new thanks to
my instructor for making the modules easy to read and to learn. I gained some knowledge and experience
to become ready for the next semester and the future.

Ma’am Marigon is very kind and considerate person because she knows that the internet in the
Philippines is very unstable. Not all of us students have a Wi-Fi connection that is a lot faster than the
Mobile Data. Ma’am Marigon accept the quizzes and exam even though it is late because of the
acceptable reasons. So far, Ma’am Marigon is the best teacher that I encounter and I hope that all the
teachers in WIT the same as Ma’am Marigon because several of the teachers that I encounter is not
considerate especially when it comes to the quizzes and exams because not all students are financially
stable.
