This week we read Chapter 4 of the book. We learend about input and output devices. There are four types of input devices: commands, user responses,date and programs. The keyboard is an example of an input device. If you think about it it makes sense logically because you are "inputing" information into the computer. An output devices is something that sends info out. This is something such as speakers. Again, this all makes sense logically. I find it interesting to read all of these chapters in the books because it explains how everything works. This will be helfpful if a problem ever comes up, you should know how the computer works.

Some things that I would like to share with my classmates would be that i am very excited to go to the Alabama game this weekend in Jax. Im not excited though that I have a test that monday that I proably wont have time to study for. Noone in the class is to happy with the teacher because of that. Im glad that this class doesnt make you do alot of work outside the classroom, or if it does it is spread out over a week so you have more time.

Some skills that I have aquired since the last class was we learned how to use the inspirationn program. This could be beneficial because it can help you teach different types of learners. I also liked this because since im planning on teaching younger kids, the pictures and charts can help them learn things faster. I also learned more about Microsoft Word. I never knew how to do half of the things that you can do on Word and Im glad that I finally leanred to do so. I think it would be helpful if i got a more up to date Word on my computer at home.
