    Study Notes

    Visual and Written Communication

    • Visuals enhance presentations, providing context to written and verbal communication.
    • Different learning styles benefit from visual aids, making the information more digestible.
    • Written communication involves writing, typing, or printing to convey information.
    • It serves as a permanent record for future reference and is commonly utilized in various formats (books, emails, memos).

    Advantages of Written Communication

    • Maintains a permanent record of information exchanged or shared.
    • Encourages meticulous presentation, ensuring essential information is included.
    • Facilitates easy circulation within an organization compared to oral communication.

    Non-Verbal Communication

    • Body language complements verbal communication, conveying information through physical behavior.
    • Key elements of body language include facial expressions, posture, gestures, touch, spatial use, and eye movement (kinesics).
    • Effective non-verbal communication requires alignment with verbal messages.

    Dos and Don'ts of Body Language

    • DOs: Maintain eye contact, offer a firm handshake, check facial expressions, use natural gestures, and adopt an open posture.
    • DON'Ts: Avoid fidgeting, crossing arms, excessive eye contact, or appearing disengaged.

    Advantages of Verbal Communication

    • Saves time, allowing for the quick transmission of messages.
    • Economical, eliminating the need for printed materials.
    • Enables instant feedback, clarifying messages promptly.

    Characteristics of Non-Verbal Communication

    • Continuous: Non-verbal cues persist even when verbal communication pauses.
    • Multi-channel: Concurrent visual and verbal cues can lead to confusion.
    • Culture-bound: Non-verbal behaviors vary across cultures but some gestures, like smiling, are universal.
    • Long conversations are challenging as non-verbal communication lacks depth for detailed explanations.

    Self-Management Skills

    • Self-management involves taking responsibility for personal behavior and well-being.
    • It promotes individual independence, crucial for navigating life's challenges.

    Computer Systems: Hardware and Software

    • A computer comprises hardware (physical components) and software (programs/applications).
    • Significant hardware components include input devices, output devices, the Central Processing Unit (CPU), and storage units.

    Central Processing Unit (CPU)

    • The CPU acts as the brain of the computer, controlling operations and managing memory use.
    • Contains main units: Arithmetic and Logic Unit (ALU) for calculations and logical operations, and the Control Unit (CU).
