What is a Technology?
◦ Technology is the sum of techniques, skills, methods, and processes used in
the production of goods or services or in the accomplishment of objectives,
such as scientific investigation.
◦ the application of scientific knowledge for practical purposes, especially in
industry.
◦ machinery and equipment developed from the application of scientific
knowledge.
◦ the branch of knowledge dealing with engineering or applied sciences.
The Evolution of Technology
◦ The society has been dramatically changed with the evolution of technology.
Before the advent of modern technology, life was burdensome and everyday
chores consumed too much of our time. Immense opportunities are being
provided by technologies which play an important role in human life. The
access to education, medicine, industry, transportation, has been simplified due
to modern technology. Due to the convenience and efficiency provided by
technology, our lives have improved significantly.
What is a Computer

◦ A computer is an electronic device that manipulates information, or


data. It has the ability to store, retrieve, and process data. You may
already know that you can use a computer to type documents, send
email, play games, and browse the Web. You can also use it to edit
or create spreadsheets, presentations, and even videos.
Hardware vs. Software

◦ Hardware is any part of your computer that has a physical


structure, such as the keyboard or mouse. It also includes all of the
computer's internal parts, which you can see in the image below.
◦ Software is any set of instructions that tells the hardware what to
do and how to do it. Examples of software include web browsers,
games, and word processors. Below, you can see an image of
Microsoft PowerPoint, which is used to create presentations.
What are the different types of computers?
◦ Desktop computers
Many people use desktop computers at work, home, and school. Desktop
computers are designed to be placed on a desk, and they're typically made up of
a few different parts, including the computer case, monitor, keyboard,
and mouse.
◦ Laptop computers
The second type of computer you may be familiar with is
a laptop computer, commonly called a laptop. Laptops are
battery-powered computers that are more portable than
desktops, allowing you to use them almost anywhere.
◦ Tablet computers
Tablet computers—or tablets—are handheld computers
that are even more portable than laptops. Instead of a
keyboard and mouse, tablets use a touch-sensitive
screen for typing and navigation. The iPad is an example of
a tablet.
◦ Servers
A server is a computer that serves up information to other computers
on a network. For example, whenever you use the Internet, you're
looking at something that's stored on a server. Many businesses also
use local file servers to store and share files internally.
