TEACH A COURSE 2
Lesson One
We will cover these skills
o Basic concepts
o Overview of hardware
and software
o Intro to computer
systems and application
Skill one: Understanding
computer components
Functionality of the central processing unit (CPU). Explore the
central processing unit (CPU) in detail, delving into its role as
the "brain" of the computer. Discuss how the CPU executes
instructions, performs arithmetic and logical operations, and
manages data flow within the computer system.
Overview of memory systems. RAM, ROM, and cache: Dive into
the different types of computer memory systems, including
random access memory (RAM), read-only memory (ROM), and
cache. Explain how each type of memory functions, their
purpose in data storage, and their impact on computer
performance.
TEACH A COURSE 4
Skill one: Understanding
computer components (2)
Role of input/output devices in computer systems. Examine the
significance of input/output devices in computer systems.
Discuss how input devices like keyboards and mice enable
users to interact with the computer, while output devices such
as monitors and printers present information and results.
Highlight the importance of input/output devices in facilitating
communication between users and the computer.

TEACH A COURSE 7
Skill three: Computer architecture
An overview of the fundamental principles that govern the
design and structure of computer systems, including topics like
instruction set architecture, data representation, and system
organization.
Explore the internal structure and organization of a central
processing unit, including registers, arithmetic logic units,
control units, and pipelines.
Discuss the concept of memory hierarchy and its impact on
computer performance, covering various levels of memory
such as cache, main memory, and secondary storage devices.
