- 3. INTRODUCTION This unit is all about -3- Introduction communicating within the -4- Non-Technical(to 7) workplace, this entails talking to less technical people to the -8-Technical(to 12) more advanced people, this -13- Social Media can be expressed by either using a PowerPoint or the use of a camera. It is all about the communication of people in the work place, these could be colleagues or the client that is in need. Also you must be able to show if you can use social divises. Prev Next
- 4. NON-TECHNICAL ‘MEMORY’ Memory: This software is very Memory: Memory on the computer important, reason why is; what acts very similar to real life. you are working on right now is When you store something on what the RAM has opened up the hard-drive, in-real life you for you. It’s similar to when you are effectively storing work in a have work on your desk and depot or storage area. When work on your shelf; the desk is you take something out of your RAM and the shelf is your storage to use it or work on it hard-drive. The work on your on your desk your effectively desk is opened by the RAM so putting work onto the RAM. you can work on it and the shelf is bigger and stores more work. ( You can’t work straight of your shelf, can you? ) Prev Next
- 5. NON-TECHNICAL ‘SOUND’ Sound: All the sounds come from Sound: It is use for this one piece of equipment everything, clicking on the called the ‘sound card’ this computer, translate work and converts files from the even be programmed into computer into sound from the games. Anything on a video speakers or/and the game and televisions headphones. The better the originated from the computer sound card the better the because it can be programmed sound, meaning the definition by anything. of the instruments and the beat. Nothing is fuzzy in the sounding of the music. Sound cards basically download and delete the music as it goes. Prev Next
- 6. NON-TECHNICAL ‘VISUAL’ Visual: Monitors are a form of Visual: There are so many types of ‘visual’ technology, which it visual outputs like projectors shows what you are working and touch screen monitors. All on at the time,. They are very of the have a specific way of delicate and if you open up the showing there visual you may be in danger and outputs, like the projectors ‘may’ die. Projectors are have a specific lens that shoots ‘visual’ because they show the out the light so it’s visible on a display on a wall of screen so wall, and the touchscreen the worker can do the work on allows you to change the a larger scale. output.

- 7. MOTHERBOARD ‘NON-TECHNICAL’ It allows EVERYTHING to work, all wires link to this board. All hard-ware components are needed to be link to this, in fact if something is not linked to the motherboard or wirelessly recognised by the motherboard it will not even be accounted for and not going to be used.

- 8. ‘RAM’ (RANDOM ACCESS MEMORY) RAM comes in all different types of SDRAM (Synchronous Dynamic forms, there are better versions RAM) is a extremely fast piece of than others there are RAM’s for hardware, it’s speed is 133 mhz certain forms of use. where as a RAM is not as fast and DRAM (Dynamic RAM) the dynamic won’t work as well. It works by RAM’s use a capacitor to using input and output devices function there RAM it reads in linked to a built internal clock. 0’s and 1’s. It only holds work if ROM (Read-Only Memory) is a it have a constant pulse of non-volatile memory which means electricity it is called a ‘fresh it stills stores the information circuit’. So if there is a strong even if the computer has no and fast flow of electricity the power going to it which RAMs do DRAM works a charm. not they are called volatile. Prev Next
- 9. SATA/PATA Pata Cables (Parallel ATA) this Sata Cables (Serial ATA) these are a cable is used to link many lot faster and better than the different types of hardware, for Pata cable. Because it offers example you can link the hard less cable usage which saves drive it’s self to the more money than Pata, allows motherboard via the Pata hot swapping allows you to cable. The cable has a 40 take it out when ever, also it pin, which allows the cable to works a lot faster because it link to all different hard-ware uses a higher signal rate and components, because 40 is a also and allows the fact that very strong number to transfer lets you to use a queuing data between. It also links to protocol too. many other hard ware components like the disk drive, and floppy drive. Prev Next
- 10. CPU (CENTRAL PROCESSING UNIT) This is the brain of the computer, if Not every task is sent too the CPU a PC had a miss functioning there are tasks that the hard- CPU it probably would even ware it’s self can handle like turn on. Everything you do on a making sure the DVD is computer is controlled by the running on a Disc drive and the CPU. The CPU is always hard drive can keep giving the realising heat energy because information to the RAM to a of the amount of work that it is certain extent. doing, one way to protect your CPU from over heating is to use a thermal compound, which it allows to take away the heat from the CPU too cool it down.

- 11. SOCIAL MEDIA There are many types of social media, like twitter and Facebook; these are all social sites but they spread information. All the tweets and all the Facebook statuses are all small forms of social media. Social media is when people spread information that may not be correct but may not be wrong, it can be fine, but it can be changed by opinions of others. Normal media like the news can not be changed because of the fact that it is already printed on the paper and shipped off, anything wrote on that page is the news and can not be changed. Prev Next
