INTRODUCTION

The history of computers could be traced to the early days with the use of various counting
devices for counting and computational purposes. The counting devices includes:
 Early counting devices.
 Mechanical counting and calculating devices.
 Electro-mechanical counting devices.
 Electronic counting devices and modern computers.

PRESENTATION: (step by step exposition of the material)


STEP 1: EARLY COUNTING DEVICES
Early counting devices could be defined as devices used to perform arithmetic operations
before the advent of modern civilization. People learned how to count and perform arithmetic
operations well back in the Stone Age. During this period, there were no complex commercial
activities. People would but add, subtract, multiply and divide simple numbers. Hence,
numerical operations were not as complex as it is today.

STEP 2:
CONTEXTUALIZATION (of the material of the classroom situation)
The teacher uses the computer system, projector and e-board to display pictures and describe
the various inventions.
STUDENTS’ ENGAGEMENT IN THE LESSON
The students are engaged with identifying the different inventions and also engaged with a
video about the evolution of technology.
REVIEW (by teachers and students of familiar materials):
1. How is ICT and IT related?
2. What is a printing press?
EVALUATION (in three learning domains…. Cognitive, affective, psychomotor)
QUESTIONS:
1. Who invented the radio and in what year?
2. Who invented the television and in what year?
3. State the relationship/Link between the computer and ICT.
CONCLUSION: Information Technology is a 'classification' term that defines all components
of the systems that gather, share and store information. A computer is a component of the 'IT'
division. Other components are the Network devices (routers, switches, hubs, etc.),
communication devices (Modems, PBXs, etc.), storage devices (optical drives, mass storage
drives, back up units, etc.), etc.
