 INTRODUCING MICROSOFT
POWER POINT
To have good grasp of
Microsoft power point,
let’s get the general
introduction to computer.
 COMPUTER
 Computer is an electronic
device designed to accept
data, process data and give
out information that can be
useful to the user.
 COMPUTER SYSTEM
 Computer system is a set of
interrelated parts of computer which
are connected together to form a
complete computer so that the
computer can work properly. Note:-
Absence of any part of the system may
affect the proper work or
performance of the computer.
 COMPONENTS OF COMPUTER
SYSEM
Computer system has three
components, they include:-
A.Computer hardware components.
B.Computer software component
C.Computer live ware (people ware)
components.
 COMPUTER HARDWARE
COMPONENTS
Computer hardware are all
the physical or tangible parts
of the computer which can be
seen, touched or even carried
about.
 EXAMPLES OF COMPUTER
HARDWARE
(1) Monitor (2) Key board (3) System unit (4)
Printer (5) Mouse (6) Light pen (7) Joy stick (8)
Flash disk (9) Diskette (10) Speakers (11) Scanner
etc.
 Computer hardware are grouped on the
function they perform in the whole system.
They are grouped into the following
components:-
(1)Input devices (2)output devices
(3) storage devices (4) system unit
INPUT DEVICES
 INPUT DEVICES
Input devices are those hardware
components or parts of computer that
are used to send in or put data into
the computer. Input device are very
important to the computer system
because through them computer is
given command and instruction to
make it work properly.
 EXAMPLES OF COMPUTER
INPUT DEVICES

(i) Key board

(ii)Mouse(iii) Scanner
(iv)Light pen (v)Joy stick
OUTPUT DEVICES
 OUTPUT DEVICES
Output devices are computer
hardware components or parts that
are used to make available results of
work performed in the computer to
the user either in hand copy or soft
copy. Hard copy means on paper
while soft copy mean on computer
screen for user to read.
 EXAMPLES OF COMPUTER
OUTPUT DEVICES

(1) Monitor. (ii) Printer.

(iii) Speaker.
STORAGE DEVICES
 STORAGE DEVICES
Storage devices are devices
that have memory capacity
which can store up data and
information for future use or
reference.
EXAMPLES OF COMPUTER STORAGE
DEVICES

(i) Flash disk (ii) Floppy

disk (Diskette) (iii)
Compact disk (CD)
(iV)Digital versatile disk.
(DVD) (v) Harddisk
SYSTEM UNIT
 SYSTEM UNIT
System unit is the part of
computer that brings
together and coordinates the
function of all other parts of
computer to make them work
well.
 COMPONENT OF SYSTEM UNIT

Computer software are grouped

into two components, they are:-
(1) System Software

(2) Application Software

SYSTEM SOFTWARE
 SYSTEM SOFTWARE
System software are those software
that comes with the computer when
the computer is bought newly. They
are programs that are designed and
install by the computer
manufactures/programmers
themselves.
 EXAMPLE OF SYSTEM SOFTWARE

(i) Operating system. Examples:

(a) Ms - Dos (b) Pc-Dos (c)
Windows etc.
(ii) Utilities. Examples: (a) Anti-
virus (b) Scandisk etc.
(iii) Editor
APPLICATION SOFTWARE
 APPLICATION SOFTWARE
Application software are those computer
programs written and sold in packages by
computer programmers. Computer user will
have to buy application software from software
sellers and install in his or her computer. Most
application software are stored in compact disk
and are ready to run (do it work) whenever the
user put it into the computer.
EXAMPLES OF APPLICATION
SOFTWARE
(1) Word processing e.g:- (a) Microsoft office:-
Microsoft word, Microsoft office excel, Microsoft power
point etc.
(2) Graphics E.g:- (a) Coral Draw. (b) AutoCAD etc.

(4) Explorer or outlook (for Communication). E.g:- (a)
Mozilla Firefox (b) Internet explorer etc.
(5) Movie maker. E.g:- (a) Gom player (b) Window
movie maker etc.
 COMPONENTS OF COMPUTER LIVE WARE
(PEOPLEWARE)

 Computer users are important

component of a computer system.
 Computer users are the people who
use the computer and who directly or
indirectly make computer system to
run smoothly.
Components of computer users are grouped into
four, they include the following:

(1) Computer programmers (2)

Computer operators.
(3) Computer Engineers
(4) Computer policy makers
