    • What is a computer?

      computer is an electronic device that manipulates information, or data. It has the ability to storeretrieve, and process data. You may already know that you can use a computer to type documentssend emailplay games, and browse the Web. You can also use it to edit or create spreadsheetspresentations, and even videos.

      Watch the video below to learn about different types of computers.

      Hardware vs. software

      Before we talk about different types of computers, let's talk about two things all computers have in common: hardware and software.

      • Hardware is any part of your computer that has a physical structure, such as the keyboard or mouse. It also includes all of the computer's internal parts, which you can see in the image below.
        viewing hardware
      • Software is any set of instructions that tells the hardware what to do and how to do it. Examples of software include web browsers, games, and word processors.
        viewing software

      Everything you do on your computer will rely on both hardware and software. For example, right now you may be viewing this lesson in a web browser (software) and using your mouse (hardware) to click from page to page. As you learn about different types of computers, ask yourself about the differences in their hardware. As you progress through this tutorial, you'll see that different types of computers also often use different types of software.

      What are the different types of computers?

      When most people hear the word computer, they think of a personal computer such as a desktop or laptop. However, computers come in many shapes and sizes, and they perform many different functions in our daily lives. When you withdraw cash from an ATM, scan groceries at the store, or use a calculator, you're using a type of computer.

      viewing a variety of computers

      Desktop computers

      showing a desktop computer

      Many people use desktop computers at work, home, and school. Desktop computers are designed to be placed on a desk, and they're typically made up of a few different parts, including the computer casemonitorkeyboard, and mouse.

      Laptop computers

      showing a laptop computer

      The second type of computer you may be familiar with is a laptop computer, commonly called a laptop. Laptops are battery-powered computers that are more portable than desktops, allowing you to use them almost anywhere.

      Tablet computers

      showing a tablet computer

      Tablet computersΓÇöor tabletsΓÇöare handheld computers that are even more portable than laptops. Instead of a keyboard and mouse, tablets use a touch-sensitive screen for typing and navigation. The iPad is an example of a tablet.

      Servers

      showing servers

      server is a computer that serves up information to other computers on a network. For example, whenever you use the Internet, you're looking at something that's stored on a server. Many businesses also use local file servers to store and share files internally.

      Other types of computers

      Many of today's electronics are basically specialized computers, though we don't always think of them that way. Here are a few common examples.

      • Smartphones: Many cell phones can do a lot of things computers can do, including browsing the Internet and playing games. They are often called smartphones.
      • Wearables: Wearable technology is a general term for a group of devicesΓÇöincluding fitness trackers and smartwatchesΓÇöthat are designed to be worn throughout the day. These devices are often called wearables for short.
      • Game consoles: game console is a specialized type of computer that is used for playing video games on your TV.
      • TVs: Many TVs now include applicationsΓÇöor appsΓÇöthat let you access various types of online content. For example, you can stream video from the Internet directly onto your TV.

      PCs and Macs

      Personal computers come in two main styles: PC and Mac. Both are fully functional, but they have a different look and feel, and many people prefer one or the other.

      PCs

      showing a pc

      This type of computer began with the original IBM PC that was introduced in 1981. Other companies began creating similar computers, which were called IBM PC Compatible (often shortened to PC). Today, this is the most common type of personal computer, and it typically includes the Microsoft Windows operating system.

      Macs

      showing a mac

      The Macintosh computer was introduced in 1984, and it was the first widely sold personal computer with a graphical user interface, or GUI (pronounced gooey). All Macs are made by one company (Apple), and they almost always use the Mac OS X operating system.

      Mark: Hi, Jessica! I just bought my first computer, but IΓÇÖm confused about operating systems. Can you help?

      Jessica: Sure, Mark! Operating systems manage all the hardware and software on your computer. Do you know which one you have?

      Mark: I think itΓÇÖs Windows. I see that name a lot.

      Jessica: Good choice! Windows is user-friendly and compatible with most applications, widely used in both personal and business settings.

      Mark: IΓÇÖve heard about macOS too. WhatΓÇÖs the difference?

      Jessica: macOS is for Apple computers, known for its sleek design and strong security, but it has fewer software options compared to Windows.

      Mark: What about Linux?

      Jessica: Linux is open-source and customizable, popular among developers, but it can be challenging for beginners.

      Mark: That sounds interesting but intimidating.

      Jessica: It can be! Stick with Windows for now; it supports most software.

      Mark: Do I need to worry about updating the OS?

At their core, computers consist of hardware components such as the central processing unit (CPU), memory (RAM), storage (hard drives or SSDs), and input/output devices (like keyboards and monitors). The CPU acts as the brain of the computer, processing instructions and managing tasks. Memory temporarily stores data that the CPU needs to access quickly, while storage holds data and applications for long-term use.

      There are several types of computers, including desktops, laptops, tablets, and servers. Desktops are often used in offices and homes due to their powerful performance and upgradeability. Laptops offer portability, allowing users to work on the go. Tablets, while limited in functionality compared to desktops and laptops, are convenient for browsing the web and consuming media.

      Operating systems (OS) are essential software that manage the computer's hardware and provide a platform for applications to run. Popular operat ing systems include Microsoft Windows, Apple's macOS, and Linux. Each OS has its features and user interface, catering to different user preferences and needs. Understanding the basics of computer hardware and operating systems is crucial for anyone looking to navigate the digital world effectively.

    • I.         GRAMMAR POINTS: Parts of Speech

      In the context of computer basics and operating systems, parts of speech help us understand how words function in sentences.

      o   Nouns: These are names of things or concepts. For example, "computer," "CPU," and "software" are all nouns that refer to different components of a computer system.

      o   Verbs: Verbs show actions or states of being. In our topic, verbs like "process," "store," and "manage" describe what computers do.

      o   Adjectives: Adjectives modify nouns, giving more detail. Words like "powerful" (describing desktops) or "convenient" (describing tablets) help us understand the features of different computers.

      o   Adverbs: Adverbs modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs, often explaining how actions are performed. For instance, "quickly" in "access quickly" describes how data is accessed.

      o   Prepositions: These words show relationships between nouns. In the phrase "across different sectors," "across" indicates the range of applications for computers.

      o   Conjunctions: Conjunctions connect words or groups of words. For example, "and" links "hardware" and "software," showing how they work together.

      o   Pronouns: Pronouns replace nouns to avoid repetition. In our context, "it" can refer to a computer or an operating system mentioned earlier.

      a.    Identify the part of speech for each underlined word in the sentences below. Choose from the following options: Noun, Verb, Adjective, Adverb, Preposition, Conjunction, Pronoun.

Over 45% have announced they have endured some sort of cyber-harassment. Safer Internet Day is celebrated worldwide in February to raise awareness about internet safety.[2] In the UK the Get Safe Online campaign has received sponsorship from government agency Serious Organized Crime Agency (SOCA) and major Internet companies such as Microsoft and eBay.[3]

      Online safety is necessary and validated as many businesses have been faced with excesses of attacks on the internet which has resulted in losing oneΓÇÖs life on the part of the victims, committing suicide, or psychological disorderliness. Cyberattacks on businesses and organizations are becoming a growing trend, and Africa is not exempted. The productivity, income, and client trust of organizations are all negatively impacted, not to mention the customers' security.[4]

      Information security

      Sensitive information such as personal information and identity, passwords are often associated with personal property and privacy and may present security concerns if leaked. Unauthorized access and usage of private information may result in consequences such as identity theft, as well as theft of property. Common causes of information security breaches include:

      Phishing

      Phishing is a type of scam where the scammers disguise themselves as trustworthy source in an attempt to obtain private information such as passwords, credit card information, etc. through the internet. These fake websites are often designed to look identical to their legitimate counterparts to avoid suspicion from the user.[5] Normally, hackers will send third-party email to target requesting personal information, and they will use this as an entry point to implement attack.[6]

      Malware

      Malware, particularly spyware, is malicious software designed to collect and transmit private information, such as passwords, without the user's consent or knowledge. They are often distributed through e-mail, software, and files from unofficial locations. Malware is one of the most prevalent security concerns as often it is impossible to determine whether a file is infected, regardless of the source of the file.

      Personal safety

      The growth of the internet gave rise to many important services accessible to anyone with a connection. One of these important services is digital communication. While this service allowed communication with others through the internet, this also allowed communication with malicious users. While malicious users often use the internet for personal gain, this may not be limited to financial/material gain. This is especially a concern to parents and children, as children are targets of these malicious users. Common threats to personal safety include phishing, internet scams, malware, cyberstalking, cyberbullying, online predators, and sextortion.

      Cyberstalking

      Cyberstalking is the use of the internet or other electronic means to stalk or harass an individual, group, or organization.[7] It may include false accusationsdefamationslander and libel. It may also include monitoring, identity theft, threats, vandalism, solicitation for sex, or gathering information that may be used to threaten, embarrass or harass. Cyberstalking is a crime in which someone harasses or stalks a victim using electronic or digital means, such as social media, email, instant messaging (IM), or messages posted to a discussion group or forum. ... The terms cyberstalking and cyberbullying are often used interchangeably.

      Cyberbullying

      Cyberbullying is the use of electronic means such as instant messaging, social media, e-mail and other forms of online communication with the intent to abuse, intimidate, or overpower an individual or group. Over the past decade, cyberbullying has been identified as a significant problem for youth.[8][9] In a 2012 study of over 11,925 students in the United States, it was indicated that 23% of adolescents reported being a victim of cyberbullying, 30% of which reported experiencing suicidal behavior.[10][11] The Australian eSafety Commissioner's website reports that 44% of young Australians report being socially excluded, threatened or abused online.[12]

      Sometimes, this takes the form of posting unverifiable and illegal libelous statements on harassment websites.[13] These websites then run advertisements encouraging the victims to pay thousands of dollars to related businesses to get the posts removed ΓÇô temporarily, as opposed to the free and permanent removal process available through major web search engines.[13]

      Child-on-child abuse (peer-on-peer abuse) that happens online often falls under cyberbullying. However, it goes much further. It can include physical and sexual abuse or harassment, relationships abuse, grooming and more.[14][15]

      Online predation

      Online predation is the act of engaging an underage minor in inappropriate sexual relationships through the internet. Online predators may attempt to initiate and seduce minors into relationships through the use of chat rooms or internet forums.

      Online grooming

      [edit]

      Online grooming usually refers to child sexual abuse but can also refer to radicalisationdrug trafficking, and financial gain. Grooming is when a stranger targets a child by befriending them and gaining their trust. Once they gain this trust, the groomer can manipulate the child to do what they want, which may include sending sexual images, running drugs, or any number of other activities.[16]

      Obscene/offensive content

      [edit]

      Various websites on the internet content material that some deem offensive, distasteful or explicit, which may often be not of the user's liking. Such websites may include internetshock siteshate speech or otherwise inflammatory content. Such content may manifest in many ways, such as pop-up ads and unsuspecting links.[17]

      Sextortion

      [edit]

      Sextortion, especially via the use of webcams, is a concern, especially for those who use webcams for flirting and cybersex.[18][19] Often this involves a cybercriminal posing as someone else - such as an attractive person - initiating communication of a sexual nature with the victim. The victim is then persuaded to undress in front of a webcam, and may also be persuaded to engage in sexual behaviour, such as masturbation.[20] The video is recorded by the cybercriminal, who then reveals their true intent and demands money or other services (such as more explicit images of the victim, in cases of online predation), threatening to publicly release the video and send it to family members and friends of the victim if they do not comply.[20] A video highlighting the dangers of sextortion has been released by the National Crime Agency[21] in the UK to educate people, especially given the fact that blackmail of a sexual nature may cause humiliation to a sufficient extent to cause the victim to take their own life,[19] in addition to other efforts to educate the public on the risks of sextortion.[18]
