III. Procedure:
A. PRELIMINARY ACTIVITIES
A.1 Prayer
A.2 Greetings
A.3 Classroom management
A.4 Checking of attendance
A.5 Review of past lesson (The teacher will call student/s to recap the lesson.)

B. ACTIVITY

b.1 The teacher will show a pictures to the students of different types of computing devices.
b.2 The teacher will ask the students to group themselves into 5 or 6, and will be asked to do the following:

1. Each group shall think of their own ideas about what they saw on the pictures. (1 minute)
2. Each member will discuss with their respective co-members and make a situation how computing devices change their lives.
(3 minutes)
3. Then, each group will perform their ideas in a form of acting/drama. (2 mins.)
4. Other group will take note the ideas came from the performing group.

C. ANALYSIS

The teacher will collate the ideas of the students. Each of the group’s ideas will be connected through the following guide questions:

1. What ideas does each of the group represent?

2. What are their specific ideas how computing devices change lives?
3. Are these present in the community?
4. What are their common ideas?

D. ABSTRACTION

With the use of PowerPoint presentation, the teacher will discuss WHAT ARE THE OTHER TYPES OF COMPUTING
DEVICES with descriptions and examples provided.

What is Computing Device: an electronic machine that uses binary data to automatically perform calculations.

Types of Computing Devices

• Personal Computer: a computing device designed to be used by one person at a time, as a non-mobile computer in a specific
location.

 Desktop Computer: a computing device designed to be placed on or near a user’s desk.

  All-in-one computer: a computer that has the monitor and the computing components all in one physical device.

 Laptop: a complete computer system that is small, compact, lightweight, and portable. All have keyboard, specialized
hardware designed especially for use in a smaller portable system, use standard operating systems, can run on battery or
alternating current (AC) power, and can connect to other devices.
 Notebook: smaller laptop models that also have a keyboard, but typically have fewer features.

 Tablet PC: mobile devices that range in size from larger tablets that look like a traditional laptop but have a touchscreen to
small notebook-sized mobile devices that operate similarly to a smartphone, but are a bit larger and have more computing
power. Tablets may have the option to attach a keyboard.
 Smartphone: high-end mobile devices that provide users with a wide range of functions, such as portable media players,
video cameras, GPS, high-resolution touchscreens, high-speed Wi-Fi, web browsers, and mobile broadband, along with
phone service.

 Apple iPhone : a combination of phone, Internet gadget, and widescreen iPod, which runs on the iOS operating
system.
 Android smartphone: has similar functions to the iPhone, except that the Android OS allows multiple applications
to run simultaneously without interruption.
 BlackBerry smartphone: primarily used by professionals to conduct business operations and tasks. The BlackBerry
OS directly supports corporate business requirements with functions such as synchronizing with Microsoft®
Exchange, IBM® Lotus® Domino®, or Novell® GroupWise® emails, contacts, and tasks by maintaining a high
level of security.
 Windows smartphone: runs on the Windows Phone OS, which is maintained and developed by Microsoft. Features
include a suite of Microsoft® Office® applications, Outlook® Mobile, web browsing, Windows Media® Player,
and other advanced features.

 Server: a network computer that manages access to centralized or shared resources that responds to requests from computers,
devices, and other servers on the network.
 Supercomputer: the fastest and the most expensive computer among all types of computers, often used in research and
simulations by hospitals, universities, and governments to accomplish a single, specialized task.
 Mainframe: a large computer that might serve a large organization, which is used to process and store information for many
users at once; therefore, it requires much more processing power and storage capacity than other computers.
 Terminal: consists of a typewriter-style keyboard and a display screen, or monitor.
 eBook reader: a device used to read electronic books, or eBooks, some of which do nothing besides allow you to download and
read eBooks. Others include a browser to access the World Wide Web and to read email.

 Personal digital assistant (PDA): a mobile hand-held device that provides computing, information storage, and information
retrieval capabilities for personal or business use, primarily used for keeping schedules, calendars, and address book information
handy. Often smartphones are now used in place of the more traditional PDA.

 Multimedia player: a handheld device that enables you to play digitally recorded audio, video, and combination audio/video
files, most with synchronization and transfer capabilities and some with Wi-Fi connectivity.

E. APPLICATION

After presenting the concepts of different types of Computing Devices, an activity shall be drawn through:

1. Let each group think of the best idea about some examples of computing devices they have understood.
2. 2 or 3 groups will combine and let them discussed their ideas and make a one model/replica out of it with the use
bond papers and pentelpen for the details.
3. The group will choose one or two representatives to explain and elaborate their output in front of the class.

IV - EVALUATION

Directions: In a one whole sheet of paper, give at least ten (10) types of computing devices and discussed.

V. ASSIGNMENT:
Directions: In a one (1) whole sheet of paper, answer the following questions;

1. What is input device? Give at least 3 examples.

2. What are specialized input devices and discussed.
