Chapter 3
August 5, 2009
This week’s chapter dealt with computers in the classroom. This chapter, to be honest, was the easiest chapter of the course. This simply went through all the various components of a computer, as well as discussed to implications of both an operating system, as well as software that can be used on the operating system. All of this information is highly relevant to our work towards being educators fluent in technology, as it provides specific details about the various components of a computer and how those function along side the other components. I for one am a strong proponent of teachers learning these things, as they will have a much better grasp on small computer problems, as well as potential 3rd party peripherals and tools that could be integrated into their own system to help aid their teaching process even further.
