UNIT PUBLIC SPEAKING
5
Public speaking is something that we all have to do, whether it is in school or in
the workplace. I'm now going to present a speech to you, and I'd like everyone to
observe and think about why this speech is ineffective."
Following the speech, prompt students to discuss what they have observed:
"Was that a good speech? Why not?"
"What did I do wrong? Can you cite some examples?"
"Why is that bad?"
"If I answered questions like this in a job interview, would I get hired?"

- In-class exercise: ask the group to think about how they would describe a
digital camera to a group of first graders vs. a group of teachers from
their school – what features would you highlight? Why would you
describe them differently?
- In class exercise: ask the group to pretend that the instructor has just
arrived in the United States from Russia and describe for him/her a
cheese steak.
Informative Speeches:
Uses:
- Explaining a process ("how-to") – ask for a volunteer to give an
informative speech on how to tie your shoe, make a paper airplane, do a
lay-up, etc.
- In the workplace, an informative speech may be used to explain to co-
workers how to use a new computer system.
- In school, an informative speech may be used to explain how to do
research.
- Explaining an object (a thing, a place, a person, a product, etc.) – ask for a
volunteer to give an informative speech about a place he has visited.
- Ask the group to offer examples of where informative speeches about
objects would be useful in the classroom or at work.
- Explaining an event – for example, the Presidential Election, World War
II, Independence Day, etc.
Persuasive Speeches:
Purpose: the presentation of an argument on a debatable issue
- Ask the group to give examples of what they believe to be "debatable
issues."
Uses: to persuade your audience to accept your view or to convince your
audience to take a particular course of action.
- Examples
10
- 1. Try to convince your audience that the death penalty is appropriate
- 2. Try to convince your audience to live healthier lives (eating healthy,
exercising, etc.) because obesity puts people at greater risk for health
problems (high blood pressure, stroke, heart disease, etc.)
- Ask the students to suggest possible arguments for these two examples.
- Persuasive speeches can be structured in two ways:
- Point-by-point: the speaker presents, one by one, the opposition's
arguments and refutes them immediately (The opposition says __, but in
reality, it's __. The opposition also says __, but in truth, it's __.)
- Specific point: the speaker presents his thesis, followed by the overall
view of the opposition, leading into his overall argument and
conclusion.)
Narrative Speeches:
Purpose: to tell a story
Uses: speaking about yourself and your experiences, in the first person, or
about someone else, in the third person
- Examples:
- 1. Speaking about an influential person in your life
- 2. Tell your family story
-
Ask the students to discuss times when a narrative speech would be useful in the
business world (example: in a job interview).

UNIT STORAGE DEVICES
9
A storage device is used in the computers to store the data. It provides one of the
core functions of the modern computer.
Types of Storage
There are four type of storage:
• Primary Storage
• Secondary Storage
• Tertiary Storage
• Off-line Storage
Primary Storage
Also known as main memory. Main memory is directly or indirectly connected to
the central processing unit via a memory bus. The CPU continuously reads
instructions stored there and executes them as required.
Example: – RAM – ROM – Cache
Secondary Storage
It is not directly accessible by the CPU. Computer usually uses its input/output
channels to access secondary storage and transfers the desired data using
intermediate area in primary storage.
Example: – Hard disk
19
Tertiary Storage
Typically it involves a robotic mechanism which will mount (insert) and dismount
removable mass storage media into a storage device. It is a comprehensive
computer storage system that is usually very slow, so it is usually used to archive
data that is not accessed frequently. This is primarily useful for extraordinarily
large data stores, accessed without human operators.
Examples:
– Magnetic Tape
– Optical Disc
The most common types of optical media are – Blu-ray (BD) – Compact Disc
(CD) – Digital Versatile Disc (DVD).
Off-line Storage
Also known as disconnected or removable storage. It is a computer data storage
on a medium or a device that is not under the control of a processing unit. It must
be inserted or connected by a human operator before a computer can access it
again. Examples:
– Floppy Disk
– Zip diskette
– USB Flash drive
– Memory card

UNIT NETWORK
10
LAN
A local area network is a small network that’s confined to a local area. For
example, your home network or an office network is a LAN.
WAN
A wide area network is a larger network that covers a wider area. Your ISP
provides you with a connection to their own WAN, which connects to the
Internet.
24
IP Address
An Internet Protocol address, or IP address, is a numerical address that
corresponds to your computer on a network. When a computer wants to connect to
another computer, it connects to that computer’s IP address.
Router
A router is a device that passes traffic back and forth. You likely have a home
router. It’s that router’s job to pass outgoing traffic from your local devices to the
Internet, and to pass incoming traffic from the Internet to your devices.
Gateway
A gateway is a device that routes traffic between networks. For example, at home,
your router is your gateway. It provides a “gateway” between your LAN and
WAN.
NAT
Network Address Translation, or NAT, is used by routers to share a single IP
address among many devices. For example, you probably have a wireless router at
home that creates a Wi-Fi network your laptops, smartphones, tablets, and other
devices connect to. Your ISP provides you with a single IP address that’s
reachable from anywhere on the Internet, sometimes called a public IP address.
Your router creates a LAN and assigns local IP addresses to your devices. The
router then functions as a gateway. To devices outside your LAN, it appears as if
you have one device (the router) using a single IP address.
Hostnames
A hostname is a human-readable label that points to a device connected to a
network. For example, on your home network, your Windows computer’s
hostname may be WINDOWSPC. Your other devices can connect to
WINDOWSPC and will be pointed at that computer’s local IP address.
25
Domain Name
Domain names are the base part of website names. like howtogeek.com or
google.com. Note that domain names are just another type of hostname.
