Laptop (c) A thin portable computer that has a touch screen and a battery in a single unit, not normally used to make phone calls. Tablet (d) A mobile phone that can be used as a computer. Smartphone

Tick whether the following are features of operating systems containing a command line interface (CLI) or a graphical user interface (GUI).

Tick the type of computer which would be most appropriate for each use of ICT.

Tick whether the following are examples of applications software or systems software. Tick whether the following statements about desktop and laptop computers are true or false.

Smart phones are used to send and receive emails with and without attachments. Describe four other ways in which emails can be managed on a smart phone. Place/organise in folders Sort the emails Flag for importance Delete from phone Delete from server Search/filter emails Archive emails

More portable than PC/laptop Discuss the advantages and disadvantages to a teacher of using a tablet computer instead of another type of computer.   Advantages More portable than PC/laptop Can access internet in most places if they are part of a phone plan unlike PC/laptop Larger screen area than smartphones Carry resources round with them Disadvantages Smaller screen area than laptop/PC Touch screen so keyboard can be more difficult to use compared to laptop/PC Not as portable as smartphone Cannot access internet in as many places if they are not part of a phone plan More difficult to produce complex worksheets than PC/laptop

Fill in the missing words: (a) The input device used in flight simulation is a joystick (b) The type of memory used to store the work that the user is currently working on is RAM (c) A medium used to backup data is magnetic tape ROM, Bar Code Reader, RAM, Magnetic Tape, Joystick, OCR, Chip Reader & MICR

Discuss why different user interfaces require the use of different types of input devices. With a GUI you just click on an icon With a GUI icons represent applications Separate windows are used for different pieces of work/software With a GUI menus are offered to help choose an action Moving a mouse enables users to manoeuvre a pointer around a screen A mouse can be used to drag windows/icons around a screen People with physical disabilities can use a trackerball to manoeuvre the pointer around a screen Pointing devices are easier to control a pointer/menu selection/icon clicking Joysticks can be used to mimic the behaviour of a mouse Buttons on the mouse enable users to select icons Buttons on a mouse enable users to see menus on a screen Touchscreen can be used to directly select options from a screen
