Lesson 2: Perform Mensuration and Calculation

The document discusses different lessons related to computer memory, including performing mensuration and calculations. It introduces a pixel puzzle group activity to teach about bits and binary representation. Key concepts explained include how computers use binary codes to represent letters, numbers, and characters with bits, and how to convert decimal numbers to their binary equivalents through repeated division and noting the remainders.

Calculation
Learning outcome 2
Carry out
mensuration and
calculation
But before we start,
Lesson review:
Learning outcome 1:
Computer memory
RAM and ROM
Floppy drive
Optical drive
Flash drive
Now let’s begin with
our new lesson,
First let’s have a
game
Pixel Puzzle
Mechanics:

1. Divide the class into three groups with at


least ten member each.
2. Each team will complete the puzzle by
correctly putting the right color for each box
with its corresponding color code.
3. The first team that will identify the hidden
message of the puzzle will win.
4. Each team will given ten minutes to finish the
puzzle.
Follow-up questions:

1. How do you manage to complete the puzzle?


2. What is the strategy of your team used to
complete the task?
3. What is a Bit?
4. How Bit is related to our group activity?
DIGITAL REPRESENTATION
Within a computer, information is represented
and stored in a digital binary format. The term bit
is an abbreviation of binary digit and represents
the smallest piece of data.
Humans interpret words and pictures; computers interpret only patterns of bits.
A bit can have only two possible values
a one digit (1) or a zero digit (0).
A bit can be used to represent the state of
something that has two states.

On = 1
Off = 0
Computers use binary codes to represent and interpret letters, numbers and special
characters with bits. A commonly used code is the American Standard Code for
Information Interchange (ASCII). With ASCII, each character is represented by a string of
bits.

Example:
Capital letter: A = 01000001
Number: 9 = 00001001
Special character: # = 00100011
Each group of eight bits, such as the representations of letters and
numbers, is known as a byte.

Codes can be used to represent almost any type of information


digitally: computer data, graphics, photos, voice, video , and music.
CONVERT DECIMAL NUMBERS TO
BINARY
• To convert a decimal number to
binary, all you have to do is divide
the number by 2.
• Get the quotient and the
remainder.
• Bring down the quotient, divide it
by 2, and get the quotient and
remainder again.
• Do it repeatedly until the
quotient results to 0. Copy the
remainder from bottom to top,
and that is the binary equivalent
