Session 2 - Applications and Issues/Computer Hardware - 19/12/2023

  • Session 2 - Applications and Issues/Computer Hardware - 19/12/2023

    Today, we will cover the following content:

    • issues involved in the use of technology systems, including health and safety, security measures (passwords, authentication, levels of access), environmental, sustainability, privacy and copyright
    • reasons why future development of a technology system is important to organisations, including competitive advantage, reduced costs and improved performance.

    Understand the features, uses and implications of hardware devices, including:

    • devices (PC, server, laptop, tablet, games console and other programmable digital devices)
    • input – keyboard, mouse, sensors, touch screen, microphone, scanner, digital camera
    • output – printers (inkjet, laser, impact), speakers, force feedback devices, actuators, screens, projectors, robot arms, other control devices
    • storage devices – solid state, optical media, magnetic media
    • that modern technology devices are often multifunctional (have both input and output functionality)
    • how hardware components and software can be combined to form an automated technology system (self-service checkout, production line)
    • the uses of devices that capture data for automated systems (barcode readers, magnetic strip readers, optical character readers (OCR), optical mark readers (OMR) and radio frequency identification systems (RFID))
    • suitable devices to suit the requirements for a specific user and purpose, and justify their use.
