  4. Computer literacy is that you must have knowledge and understanding of computers and their uses.Information literacy is the ability to gather information from multiple sources, select relevant material, and organize it into a form that will allow the user to make decisions or take specific actions.

  5. Internet is a global network of computers that contains information on a multitude of subjects.Integration literacy means that teachers understand how to match appropriate technology to learning objectives, goals, and outcomes.How does computer technology relate to information literacy?They relate because information on housing, cars, and other products, as well as information an finances, school systems, travel, weather.

  6. What is a computer and what does it do? Computer is an electronic device that operates under the control of the instructions stored in its memory, accepts data, processes the data according to specified rules, produces results, and stores the results for future use. Data is a collection of unorganized facts. Information is data that is organized, has meaning, and is useful. Input is data entered into a computer Output is the processed results A computer can hold data for future use in an area called storage. An information processing cycle is a cycle of input, process, output, and storage. Hard ware is the electronic and mechanical equipment that make up a computer. Software is the series of instructions that tell the hardware how to perform.

  7. Digital media is defined as those technologies that allow users to create new forms of interaction, expression, communication, and entertainment in digital format.Categories of computers*personal computer*mobile computers and devices*game consoles*super computers*embedded computers

  8. Personal Computers A personal computer or PC, is a computer that performs all of its input, processing, output, and storage activities by itself. 1st -Apple in 1976 1981-IBM compatible called PC 1984 the MAC was intoduced

  9. Mobile computers A notebook or laptop is a small, lightweight, and portable personal computer small enough to fit on your lap. Tablet PC is a special type of notebook computer that allows you to write on the screen using a digital pen Netbook or mini notebook is a small, lightweight, and designed for wireless communications.

  10. Mobile Devices Many mobile devices are Internet enabled, meaning they can connect to the Internet wirelessly. A handheld computer is small enough to fit in one hand while you operate it with the other hand. PDAS or personal digital assistant provides personal organizer functions, such as a camera, appointment book, address book, calculator, and a notebook. Smartphones are Internet enabled telephones with PDAS.

  11. Game consoles A game console is a mobile computing device designed for single player or multiplayer video games.

  12. Supercomputer and Embedding Computers A supper computer is the fastest, most powerful computer—and the most expensive. Supercomputers are used for tasks such as analyzing weather patterns, tracking hurricanes, and identifying safety issues regarding the space shuttle. An Enbedded computer is a special purpose computer that functions as one component in a larger product. Embedded computers are everywhere.

  13. Why use Computer Technology in Education? Today’s educators must provide students with the skills they will need to excel in a technology rich society. Parents are no longer urging schools to incorporate technology in the classroom, they are demanding it.

  14.

  16. Standards for Students National Educational Technology Standards for Students(NETS-S) These standard are organized into 6 important categories: Creativity and Innovation Communication and Collaboration Research and information Fluency Critical Thinking, Problem Solving, and Decision Making Digital Citizenship Technology Operations and Concepts

  17. “The World Is Flat”? “Lightning swift changes in technology and communications put people all over the globe in touch with each other as never before- creating an explosion of wealth in India and China, and challenging the rest of us to run faster just to stay in place.”

  18. Start incorporating the ideas, concepts, standards, and initiatives presented in Chapter One with your students in your future curriculum. In doing this we can equip students with the skills to be lifelong learners.

  19. Digital GenerationRevolution of youth that are much more media-centric than previous generations. Digital Students- Hypercommunicators Multitaskers Goal Oriented Today’s generations are fundamentally different from students from previous generations.

  20. Creativity and Innovation students demonstrate and develop models and simulations to explore and identify complex systems and forecast possibilities as well as they use existing knowledge to generate new ideas and creative thoughts. NETS-S

  21. Communication and Collaboration Students use digital media and environments to collaborate, communicate and interact with other students, teachers and professionals. NET-S

  22. Research and Information Fluency Students apply digital tools to plan, organize and gather information, in order to be able to inquire, analyze, organize and evaluate information. NET-S

  23. Critical Thinking, Problem Solving and Decision Making Students use critical thinking skills to plan and conduct research, manage projects, solve problems, and make informed decisions using appropriate digital tools and resources. NETS-S

  24. Digital Citizenship Students demonstrate personal development to be life long learners because they are aware of the human, cultural and social issues related to technology and they practice ethical and legal digital behavior. NETS-S

  25. Technology Operations and Concepts Students demonstrate a sound understanding of technology concepts, systems, and operations so they are able to select, transfer, understand and troubleshoot various systems and applications productively and effectively. NETS-S
