PERIOD 2 and 3: Digital and Hybrid computer. Movement

PRESENTATION

TEACHER’S ACTIVITY

PUPIL’S ACTIVITY

STEP 1

INTRODUCTION

The teacher revisits the previous lesson on the analog computer

 

Pupils pay attention

STEP 2

EXPLANATION

The teacher then explains the meaning of digital and hybrid computer 

 

Digital computer is any of a class of devices capable of solving problems by processing information in discrete form. It operates on data, including magnitudes, letters, and symbols, that are expressed in binary code—i.e., using only the two digits 0 and 1.

Examples of digital computers are Personal Computers (Desktops, Laptops, Notebooks, and Chromebooks),  Smartphones, and Tablets, Calculators, Digital Weighing Machine, Accounting machines, Digital clock and ATM (Automated Teller Machine)

 

A hybrid computer is a type of computer that offers the functionalities of both a digital and an analog computer. It is designed to include a working analog unit that is powerful for calculations, yet has a readily available digital memory. Examples of hybrid computers are Gasoline Station, Electrocardiogram Machine, Ultrasound Machine, Monitoring Machine etc

Pupils pay attention and participates

STEP 3

DEMONSTRATION

She further explains what movements means

Movement is the change in position

 

She explains and demonstrates some movement as the pupils do the same e.g leaping, hopping, running, stepping, catching of objects, throwing of objects, striking of objects, etc

 

She performs the basic movement patterns

 

Pupils pay attention and participate

STEP 4

NOTE TAKING

The teacher writes a short note on the board

The pupils copy the note in their books
