In Units V, VI, and VII, you learned about the components of a computer, how a computer 
works, the
internet, networks and network communications, cloud computing, web development, digital identity,
social media, e-commerce, ethical behavior, databases, and explored two Microsoft Office
applications, PowerPoint and Access. 
In this assignment, you will demonstrate what you have learned in these three units. 
This
assignment will have four parts. Using Microsoft PowerPoint, create a presentation that addresses the prompts in each assignment.  Label each
slide section as Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, and Part 4.
Part 1.
Title: Computer Hardware
Using bullet points, briefly describe a computing device you use often, such as your desktop, laptop, tablet, or smartphone.
Identify the make and model, and at least three other components of the computing device. In the speaker notes, discuss in detail what you use the device for and whether the device meets your current needs (why or why not?). This section should be at minimum one paragraph.
Part 2
Title: Network Communications
Using the drawing
tools in PowerPoint create
a diagram of a network
you use, such as
your home network and how it
connects to the internet. If you don’t have a network, use a friend’s
network or one that you use at work. Label
each component in the network 
(computers, media devices, printers,
routers, etc.). You can use other drawing
software of your choice 
(MS Visio, Paint, etc.) and paste this
into the PowerPoint
slide. In the speaker notes, describe
the network and what each device
in the network does. This section should be at minimum 
one paragraph.
Part 3
Title: Importance of the Internet
Using bullet points, briefly describe at least two reasons
why the internet is
essential to you. In the speaker notes, discuss
in detail how you use the internet in your daily life and why you should be knowledgeable about the internet. This section should
be at minimum one paragraph.
Part  4 Title: Databases
In this section, provide a short discussion about what you learned in the following SimNet lab: Unit VII Lab Assignment 2 (Microsoft Access Chapter 1 – Getting
Started with Access)
(approx. 30 minutes).
Then, using bullet points, identify at least two advantages of using databases vs. lists. In the speaker notes, discuss the two advantages. This section should be at minimum one paragraph.
All
four parts of your presentation should be submitted
in one PowerPoint document. You should use visuals to add visual appeal, such as clip art, graphics, charts, etc. The total length for this
assignment should be at least ten slides in
length, not counting the title or references slides.
Please use headings
and labels to identify the different parts and sections
of the assignment.
You are required to use the Notes function to add information to further explain the material on your slides.
Your presentation must use at least
two outside resources. One source must come from the
CSU Online Library
and one source can be from
your textbook or the internet. Adhere to APA Style when constructing this assignment, including in-text citations and references for all sources that are
used.
