QUESTIONS
• What are the 4 types of devices in the computer
system.
• How will you differentiate input, output, storage and
processing devices?
• Why is it important to identify the different computer
parts /peripherals?
COMPUTER SYSTEM AND ITS PERIPHERALS
Computer – an electronic device that accepts user input (data) and
processes it under the influence of a set of instructions referred to as
programs to produce the desired output generally referred to as
information.
FOUR TYPES OF COMPUTER PARTS
Input Devices – parts of computer that allow information or data to be
given to the computer. Like the keyboard and the mouse.
Output Devices – these devices give out information generated by the
computer. The printer, speaker and the monitor are the output devices.
Storage Devices – parts of a computer that holds information. The primary
storage device is the computer’s memory called RAM (Random Access
Memory).
Processing Devices – part of a computer that process and controls the
flow of information; it actually does the work. The one part of the
computer that handles this job is the Central Processing Unit or CPU
ACTIVITY 2: LOCATE THE DIFFERENT PARTS OF A COMPUTER AND DISCUSS THEIR
FUNCTIONS
Directions: Group the students into 4 groups,
group 1 will locate and discuss the output
devices, group 2 input devices, group 3 storage
devices, group 4 processing device.
