Course Description Consider this sentence: “Computers are everywhere.” Does it sound like an overstatement? No matter how we perceive the impact of computers, the statement is true. Computers are everywhere. In fact, we can find them in some pretty unlikely places, including our car, our home appliances end even in some alarm clocks and other electronic devices we use. In the past two decades, computers have reaped our

lives at home, work or school. The vast majority of businesses now use computerized equipment in some

way and most companies are networked both internally and externally. Employees who once had little

use for technology now interact with computers almost every minute of the workday. It therefore becomes

essential for all business graduates to understand how this machine works and more importantly how to

use it in their professional lives in the near future. The knowledge and skills that one gains from the course

should pay dividends in the future, as computers become even more common at home and at work. The course begins with a basic overview of fundamentals like the many types of computers in use today and why people use them. As our knowledge grows, we shall realize that all computers are basically similar. Like any machine, a computer is a collection of parts which are categorized according to the

work they do. We shall learn about these various families of computer components and how this work

together and allow us to interact with the system. We shall discover the importance of software, without

which a computer could do nothing. We shall also realize that the user is an essential part of a complete

computer system. When PCs first appeared in businesses, programs were designed for a single user. As computers spread throughout businesses, developers began offering complex software designed for multiple users. Data communications- the electronic transfer of information between computers- became a major focus of the

computer industry. This demand for networks has increased as businesses have realized the value of

networking. By interconnecting many individual networks into a massive single network, people around

the world can share information as though they were across the hall from one another. The Internet is an

example of one such network as is possibly the single largest network in existence today. We have seen that hardware alone does not do much of anything. The work that hardware or operating system can do on its own is very limited. Application software specially the office productivity suite shifts this focus from computer to humans. The course shall focus on trying to teach some the basic functionalities of the most commonly used productivity software in business for text and graphics, spreadsheets and presentations. Course Objectives

The objectives of the course are: 1. Facilitate a basic understanding of types of computers & their uses. 2. Provide a fundamental understanding of computer hardware, software and components.

3. Familiarize the students with the computer networks and the internet. 4. Facilitate an understanding of the most commonly used business application software.

Course Pre-requisite: None

Course Outcomes

At the end of the course, the students should be able to: 1. Describe how computers are used in various sectors of our society. 2. Identify the types of computers they see around them and understand the basic functionalities of each

one of them. 3. Understand the working of different components in a microcomputer and the role played by each in

the overall working of the machine.

4. Identify the benefits of using computer networks and what they are made up of. 5. Understand the reasons for creation of the Internet and the major services that one can access using

Internet. 6. Develop a basic familiarity for working with the most commonly used productivity suites and apply

these skills in business scenarios. Prescribed Texts
