This document discusses the characteristics of computers. It defines a characteristic as a distinctive and defining attribute or feature that describes what a computer is, how it operates, and what it can do. The document then lists 8 key characteristics of computers: speed, accuracy, storage, diligence, versatility, power of remembering, no IQ, and no feeling. It explains each characteristic and gives examples. Finally, it describes an activity where students will be assigned a computer characteristic and asked to develop a scenario showing how that characteristic enables a task.

computers that you are aware of?
(Write it using a single word that describes each
characteristics of computer that you are aware
of)

6. 6
In general, no human being
can compete to solving the
complex computation, faster
than computer.

7. 7
Since computer is
programmed, whatever input
it gives accurate results.

8. 8
Computer can store mass
storage of data with
appropriate format.

9. 9
Computer can work for
hours without any break and
creating error.

10. 10
We can use computer to
perform completely different
type of work at the same
time.

11. 11
It can remember data for us.

12. 12
Computer does not work
without instruction.

13. 13
Computer does not have
emotions, knowledge,
experience, and feeling.

14. Each group will be assigned a specific computer characteristic, and
their task is to devise a scenario related to a job or task where that
characteristic plays a pivotal role.
Group 1 : Speed & Accuracy
Group 2 : Storage & Diligence
Group 3 : Versatility & Power of remembering
Group 4 : No IQ & No Feeling
Each group will then prepare a brief role-play to showcase their
scenario. 14
