Main (35mins)

Begin with a brief overview of what an "output device" is in the realm of


technology.

Introduce the concept using Google Glass as an example. Discuss its


features such as taking photos, accessing information hands-free, and its
potential applications.

Explain the basics of E-Paper, emphasizing its low energy usage and how it
mimics real paper. Highlight common applications like price tags or certain
types of watches.

Describe the transition from traditional books to digital versions. Discuss


the Kindle's features like adjustable text size, backlight for nighttime
reading, and storage of thousands of books.

Students to brainstorm in small groups other potential applications or


scenarios where these devices could be beneficial.
Assessment
1. What is a significant benefit of using Wearable Displays like Google
Glass?
2. How does E-Paper mimic real paper and where might you commonly
see it used?
3. What are some advantages of E-Books over traditional paper books?
4. How might devices like the Kindle impact the environment positively?

Reflection (10mins)
Recap the importance and versatility of modern output devices, noting their
role in making our lives more convenient and potentially reducing our
environmental footprint.

Starter (5mins) Pictures and Describing
Display an image of a floppy disk, a CD, a USB drive, and a cloud symbol. videos Storage Systems
Ask students to discuss in pairs or small groups the evolution of storage
over time and how each device or symbol represents storage.

Share performance indicators and introduce the lesson.

Main (35mins)

Begin with an overview of storage systems, from physical storage (like CDs,
DVDs) to digital storage methods.

Discuss network storage systems, how cloud storage fits into this, and
other forms like smart cards and holographic storage.

Divide students into groups, assigning each group a specific storage type
(e.g., one group might research Google Drive while another focuses on
smart cards).

Using classroom resources like computers or tablets, groups should


explore their assigned storage system, focusing on its primary functions,
benefits, and drawbacks.

Each group will present their findings briefly. Facilitate a discussion


comparing the different storage methods, especially highlighting the pros
and cons of cloud storage.
