Study Notes
Distance Learning
- Students participate in learning from locations other than the traditional classroom setting using computers and internet access.
Computer Essentials
- A computer is a programmable electronic device that accepts data, performs operations on that data to produce results, and can store the data or results.
- Four main functions of a computer:
- Input: Entering data into the computer
- Processing: Performing operations on the data
- Output: Presenting the results
- Storage: Saving data, programs, or output for future use
Data and Information
- Data: Raw, unorganized facts
- Information: Data that has been processed into a useful form
- Representation: Processing data into a useful form
Binary System
- The binary system consists of 0s and 1s
- Instructions that tell the computer how to process data to produce the required results (information)
ICT
- ICT stands for Information and Communications Technology
