Basic Parts and Functions of a Computer
1. System Unit
The system unit is the core of a computer system. Usually, it’s a
rectangular box placed on or underneath your desk. Inside this box are many
electronic components that process information. The most important of this
component is random access memory (RAM), which temporarily stores information
that the CPU uses while the computer is on. The information stored in
RAM is erased when the computer is turned off.
2. The mouse
The mouse is used to communicate with the objects on the computer screen. You
can move objects, open them, change them, throw them away, and perform other
actions, all by pointing and clicking your mouse.

3. The Monitor
Video circuits on your PC send images to your monitor, where you can see the
action. Because monitors and video circuits on your PC (known as video cards or
display adapters) work together as a team. These terms appear on
newspaper advertisements, showroom signs and the fine print of product boxes
while shopping for either a computer or video card.
4. Keyboard
Keyboard is the main way to enter information into your computer. But did you
know you can also control your computer using your keyboard? Learning
just a few simple keyboard commands (computer instructions) can help you to
work more effectively.

The keys on your keyboard can be divided into several groups based on function:
•Typing (alphanumeric) keys. These keys include the same letter, number,
punctuation, and symbol keys found on a traditional typewriter.
•Control keys. These keys are used alone or in combination with other keys to
perform certain actions. The most frequently used control keys are Ctrl, Alt, the
Windows logo key and ESC
•Function keys. The function keys are used to perform specific tasks. They
are labeled as F1, F2, F3, and so on, up to F12. The functionality of these keys
differs from program to program.
•Navigation keys. These keys are used for moving around in documents or
webpages and editing text. They include the arrow keys, Home, End, Page Up,
Page Down, Delete, and Insert.
•Numeric keypad. The numeric keypad is handy for entering numbers
quickly. The keys are grouped together in a block like a conventional calculator or
adding machine.

5. Speaker
Speakers are used to play sound. They can be built into the system unit or
connected with cables. Speakers allow you to listen to music and hear sound effects
from your computer.

6. Printer
It allows a user to print objects, such as letters and photographs, on paper.
 D. Application
The teacher will group the students into two. Each group will be given illustration
board and chalk. The teacher will show pictures and the students will identify what
part of computer is it.
