I. OBJECTIVES
• Define hardware and software and explain their roles in a computer system.
A. Preliminaries
• Greet the students and check attendance.
Review:
Teacher: What do you remember about how computers work?
Motivation:
Teacher: Show an image of a disassembled computer and a software interface.
Teacher: Can you name any of these parts? Why do you think they are important?
B. Lesson Proper
Discussion:
• Define hardware as the physical components of a computer (e.g., CPU, RAM, Hard Drive,
Monitor, Keyboard).
• Define software as the set of instructions that tell the hardware what to do (e.g., Operating
System, Applications).
• - System Software (e.g., Windows, macOS, Linux) that manages computer operations.
• - Application Software (e.g., Microsoft Word, Web Browsers, Games) that helps users
perform specific tasks.
C. Generalization
Teacher: Why is it important to understand both hardware and software?
Student: Because they work together! Without software, hardware won’t work, and vice
versa.
IV. EVALUATION
• True or False: (Students will determine if statements about hardware and software are
correct.)
V. ASSIGNMENT
