Activity 1 - READ
Input is when data is sent into a computer system.
Output is when information is produced from a computer system.
When you use a computer you are using input and output all of the time.
HARDWARE
Inputs and outputs can be electronic devices that work with a computer system.
Example input devices are:
- Mice
- Keyboards
- Microphones
- Scanner
- Touchpad
Example output devices are:
- Monitor

- Speaker
SOFTWARE
Inputs and outputs can ALSO be software related.
Example inputs are:
- Search criteria
- Text files
- Data entry
Example outputs are:
- Reports

CLASSROOM IDEAS:
This outcome needs to ensure that students understand the concept of input and output and how these relate to computer systems.
You could link the embed task with the Art Department in your school to see if they could work on this as a one-off art lesson. Another idea would be to get students to contribute to a classroom display where they all draw parts of the image to form a whole display.
