Description

This is the first module of a short 3 modules course that introduces students to Computer Science through its 3 fundamentals:

- Computer Hardware
- Operating Systems
- Application Software

Middle School and High School students nowadays are often thrown into coding concepts before they get to understand some of the basic functionalities and architectures of computerized systems.

Some other approaches extensively utilize teaching CS by gaming (which is considered "fun" and "attractive" for students) and that is okay but our experience shows there are a lot of students who actually appreciate the technical side of the physical PCs, they build and configure their own PCs and generally want to learn more rigorous about hardware, Operating Systems and real word software applications.

This short intro module bridges this gap and teaches students fundamentals of hardware, Operating Systems and Software.

This first module describes basic notions of computer hardware, including:

1. hardware architectures
2. input devices
3. processors and processing devices
4. memory
5. output devices
6. storage devices


Two detailed PC and cloud server configurations are also presented and briefly discussed.

The module can be taught in a week in any kind of Intro To Computer Science middle school and high school course or even in the middle of the school year when there is an opportunity to do so.
