Need for Information
  • These days, everywhere is dominated by the
    information.
  • The years after 1970s is called as Information
    Age
  • We (as students and instructors) all need for
    information at different times for different
    purposes (like assignments, research papers,
    articles)
  • Question is where to find the correct information
    ?

Reporting the Findings
  • Example Ali is given a task to search about
    history of computers and write a homework about
    it in high school.
  • History of Computers
  • The development of the modern day computer was
    the result of advances in technologies and man's
    need to quantify. Papyrus helped early man to
    record language and numbers. The abacus was one
    of the first counting machines. .
  • Some of the earlier mechanical counting machines
    lacked the technology to make the design work.
    For instance, some had parts made of wood prior
    to metal manipulation and manufacturing. Imagine
    the wear on wooden gears.

  • History of Computers
  • Developments in the technology resulted with the
    todays modern computer. It is emphasized that
    the basic principle that started the idea of
    computers is counting.
  • The first counting device is known as abacus.
    Early counting machines were mechanical and do
    not have any technology. Even wood were used in
    the old abacus before metal part usage.

Reporting the Findings
  • Example Ali is given an assignment to write a
    paper about history of computers in university.
  • What Ali should do?
  • Search for information from different resources
  • Find at least 5 resource
  • Write one page paper by combining findings from
    that 5 resource.
