In chapter I learned that input devices ranged from the keyboard to digital cameras. I already knew what they word input meant because it’s obvious but the different things that can input information into a computer were very new and interesting things that I did learn. The output devices on the other hand were things that really didn’t surprise me, like the monitor on the computer or the printer. The information that we input must become the output eventually.

This weekend my friends and I wanted to take the initiative to try out our Blue tooth devices in order to transfer ring tones to one another. But to our dismay it was not as easy as we thought it was going to be so we did not succeed in doing so. It was a huge disappointment for those of us who only owned polyphonic ring tones. I was not one of the unfortunate though.

But back to a rather happy note this week in class we learned about the concept maps and how they can be used in the classroom. I found them to be interesting and also the software that goes along with it. I feel that the concept map and the inspiration software would be a good addition to any classroom because its colorful and will keep the attention of children.
