Hardware/Networking Project
by
Asif Masoad
•Lesson Title: A tutorial on hardware and networks.
• Introduction: The lesson will provide professional
development training for K- 12 classroom teachers
and enable them to understand hardware and
networking systems. In addition, teachers will
understand the impact of these mediums on their
classroom instructions.
•Content Area: Hardware and networks
•Age level of students: K-12 classroom teachers
•Objectives: The participants will learn
hardware/networks and their impact on teachers’
classroom instructions.
•Standards Addressed: N/A
•Timeline: 2 hours
•Material: Different articles relevant to the topic and
online resources
•Grouping Strategies: First of all, participants will
listen a trainer’s lecture. After that they will discuss
the topic in their groups.
•Learning Activities: First, the trainer will deliver his
lecture. After that they will discuss the concepts
about hardware/networks and their impact on
teachers’ classroom instructions. At the end,
participants will also take a test.
•Diversity: Special needs of the participants will be
addressed by using easy language, academic
prompts, repeated instructions, and individual
attentions on the participants.
•Assessment: Observation and a multiple choice
questions’ test will be applied to determine students’
learning and understanding about the topic.
Basic Parts of a Computer
•All kinds of computers have three basic parts:
• Input devices: Keyboard, camera, scanner, and mouse.
• Central Processing Unit (CPU): Memory, control, and arithmetic units.
• Output devices: Monitor, printer, speakers, and headphones. (https://ariewibisono.wordpress.com/2014/04/10/computer-cpuinput-and-output-devices/)
What is a Network
• A network consists of two or more computers which are
linked with each other to share resources such as CDs and
printers. This network also allows electronic
communications and exchange files between the linked
computers. Internet is an excellent example of a network
which connects billions of people all over the world.

Types of Networks
• Local Area Network (LAN): A network that is limited to
a small area is called a local area network (LAN) Such
as a writing lab, building, or school networks.
•Wide Area Network (WAN): Wide area networks
connect networks in substantially wide geographical
areas such as Arkansas, the United States, or the world.

Advantages of Installing a School Network
• Removes security issues
• Stores and shares information
• Connects instructors, administrators, students, and parents
with each other
• Provides internet
• Facilitates services such as school directories, registration,
course schedules, access to email accounts, and research

What is an Operating System
•An operating system is the most significant software
which runs on a computer. It manages and
coordinates many functions such as memory,
process, hardware, and software. A computer is
nothing without an operating system.
