What is a computer?

How many computers are in this room? STEP #1: Count up how many computers you believe are in this room. STEP #2: Write the number on your sheet of paper in the appropriate spot.

STEP #3: Share your number with your elbow partner and discuss how you came up with your numbers.

What are 8 different kinds of computers? (for example, a cell phone) STEP #4: Working with your group of 4, write down 8 additional types of computers on the slips of paper. STEP #5: Ask 1 member of your group to tape the 8 papers to board in the back of the room.

What is a computer? Any digital computer carries out five functions: Takes data as input. Stores the data/instructions in its memory and use them when required. Processes the data and converts it into useful information. Generates the output Controls all the above four steps. Input Process Output
