• Watch all the videos that are linked in the blog. Click on the subtitle option and choose the english version.
• Pay special atention to know how to spell the most importants parts of the computer's hardware.
• I will ask you 5 questions in the writen examination. Each one worth two points.
• There are two questions about the video of the african boy (Richard Turere) and his invention, One of them is a True or False's question and the other one is to show whether  you have understood or not the whole history.
• The third question is about the Google SketchUp software and some of its buttons and functions.
• The fourth one is about the hardware of the computer.
• And the last one is about Augmented Reality.

Hello everybody!! Today we are going to have a practical class about how to identify the components inside our computer. The day before we were here, at the library, we were watching a video about how to mount a PC from scratch. I told you that we were going to open one of our computer room's PCs, so here we are.

I have brought this computer with me, and we are going to dismount it piece by piece, while you note down on your notebook each one of the components. You have to note down the name of each component in english and in spanish too.

But as I know that you weren't paying me attention the day before..., I've linked another video to our blog, so you can learn a little more about computer parts and its vocabulary. So, pay attention now, because I'm going to evaluate you about this...
