REFLECTION/LEARNING INSIGHTS
1. Before taking up this lesson, do you know the history, technological changes,
and development of a computer? What learnings have you acquired after this
lesson?
Not into my knowledge that a calculator is a computer but when I
am reading the history of computers, I realized that it was a
specialized computer. I do not have that knowledge that there are
other people involved in the progress of computers. What I know, it
is only Bill Gates who invented computers but when I read so much
about its history, they are many. In addition, I cannot imagine that
the computers before are big but less memory, which is small today
but large memory.
2. What do you think is the importance of understanding the definition and history of
a computer?
Having a deep knowledge about computers is an advantage. It's
history that keeps the others’ inspired and uses it to do more.
Innovating and developing is the goal and mission of these brainy
people. It is important to understand the history to value every
invention and its significant work. Without its pioneering stage,
maybe we are still living in a low level of life. In able to proceed on
the next level, history and its foundation must be understood.
