Unit 01: INTRODUCTION TO WINDOWS
a. What is an Operating system: Windows
An operating system (OS) is software (programs and data) that runs on computers and manages the
computer hardware and provides common services for efficient execution of various application
software.
Microsoft Windows is a series of software operating systems and graphical user
interf aces produced by Microsoft. Microsoft first introduced an operating
environment named Windows in November 1985 as an add-on to MS-DOS in
response to the growing interest in graphical user interf aces (GUIs).
b. The Windows Environment
The "home" skin became known as "Luna", and this refined version f eatured other UI elements, such as
a reworked Start Menu and Control Panel and task panes in Windows Explorer, among other f eatures. It
was shipped with Windows XP.
The main interf ace can be characterized by the distinct MyComputer, MyDocumnets, Recycle Bin, Start
Button and a TaskBar.
The basic XP environment is known as Desktop, and may look like follows:

The Typical Windows Desktop
My Computer
The icon on the desktop which shows all the hardware attached to the computer and their properties.
MyDocuments
The pref erred Folder (a place in the computer system) where a users all documents are typically stored.
RecycleBin
The Folder in which all the unwanted files/documents which are to be completely removed from the
computer.
The Start Button
The control place which lets the user choose what has to be done
The Task Bar
The blue colored bar, typically located at the bottom of the Desktop which shows the status of the ma jor
processes being run in the computer.
c. The Keyboard
In computing, a keyboard is an input device, partially modeled after the typewriter keyboard, which uses
an arrangement of buttons or keys, to act as mechanical levers or electronic switches. After punch cards
and paper tape, interaction via teletype-style keyboards became the main input device for computers.

Basic Computer Skills for Teachers

Despite the development of alternative input devices, such as the mouse (computing mouse), touch
sensitive screens, pen devices, character recognition, voice recognition, and improvements in computer
speed and memory size, the keyboard remains the most commonly used and most versatile device used
for direct (human) input into computers.
A keyboard typically has characters engraved or printed on the keys and each press of a key typically
corresponds to a single written symbol. However, to produce some symbols requires pressing and
holding several keys simultaneously or in sequence. While most keyboard keys produce letters, numbers
or signs (characters), other keys or simultaneous key presses can produce actions or computer
commands.
In normal usage, the keyboard is used to type text and numbers into a word processor, text editor or
other program. In a modern computer, the interpretation of key presses is generally left to the software.
A computer keyboard distinguishes each physical key from every other and reports all key presses to the
controlling software. Keyboards are also used for computer gaming, either with regular keyboards or by
using keyboards with special gaming f eatures, which can expedite frequently used keystroke
combinations. A keyboard is also used to give commands to the operating system of a computer, such as
Windows' Control-Alt-Delete combination, which brings up a task window or shuts down the machine.
A Typical Layout of a Regular Keyboard
d. The Mouse and the Cursor:
A mouse is an input device which moves a pointer on the computer screen with its relative
movement on the surf ace where it Is placed. A mouse has two buttons which produces a
sound Click when pressed, thus pressing it once is called Click and pressing it twice is
known as a Double Click. The left button is used to select an item with a single click, or launch it with a
Double Click. The right button, or a Right Click lets the user choose between a menu of choices. Some
newer versions may have a Scroll Wheel as well which is used to scroll the contents of a window up or
down.
Exercise: Move the pointer to various locations
