PROGRAM LATIHAN UNTUK GURU MATA PELAJARAN TMK TAHUN 4 (PLuG TMK) PERINGKAT NEGERI PERAK 2013
Date: 21-24 Oct 2013
Venue: Computer Lab at SMK Dr. Megat Khas, Ipoh
After this course, it was an honour to receive a present for 2 people chosen among the participants in a lab, and the important advices given by lecturer to us as below:
Teaching is important in pedagogy,
not in technology.Sharing is caring, but over sharing is careless.
Some notes during the course as shown in following.

SLOT 2&3: CPU & Memory
- CPU (Unit sistem):
- History/ development of CPU:
- Vacuum tube before the semiconductor/ transistor innovated.
- Transistor → integrated circuit
- A.I.: Asimo, Roomba Robots…
- History/ development of CPU:
- Introducing of CPU (front & rear view): start button, Reset button, DVD drive, USB port, …
- Mother board:
- Processor
- BIOS
- North bridge
- South bridge
- Memory/ RAM slot → RAM
- IDE cable slot
- AGP → Graphic card
- Expansion slots:
- PCI
- AGP
- EISA
- PCI express
- Machine cycle : process 1 cycle from binary code to understanding code and reverse.
- Clock speed measurement: 1 Hz = 1 cycle/ 1 second
- Basic computer components: Monitor, System unit, keyboard and mouse, speaker, printer, …
SLOT 4&5: Input & Output.
- Computer system:
Task: Let student draw a block diagram related to input, process, output and storage and give examples for every parts.
- Programming language: C++, Visual Basic, Java, PHP, …
- Generations of programming language:
| 1st | Machine language |
| 2nd | Assembly language |
| 3rd | C++, Visual Basic, Java, PHP, … |
DAY 2:
SLOT 7: Representation of data.
Only binary code was understood by computer that electronic world.
| Binary digit (bit) | Electronic status |
| 1 | On |
| 0 | Off |
- Differences between binary, octal, decimal and hexadecimal numeral system.
- Conversion between binary and decimal, binary and octal, binary and hexadecimal.
- The byte is a unit of digital information in computing and telecommunications that most commonly consists of eight bits.
- Binary code：
| 27 | 26 | 25 | 24 | 23 | 22 | 21 | 20 |
| 128 | 64 | 32 | 16 | 8 | 4 | 2 | 1 |
| 1 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 |
- The ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) is a character-encoding scheme originally based on the English alphabet that encodes 128 specified characters – the numbers 0-9, the letters a-z and A-Z, some basic punctuation symbols, some control codes that originated with Teletype machines, and a blank space – into the 7-bit binary integers.
- Bit → byte → kilobyte (KB) → megabyte (MB) → Gigabyte (GB)
| 1 byte | 8 bits |
| 1 kilobytes = 1000 bytes | 210 = 1024 bytes |
| 1 megabytes = 1 000 000 bytes | 220 = 1048576 bytes |
| 1 gigabytes = 1 000 000 000 bytes | 230 = 1073741824 bytes |
| 1 megabytes | 210 kilobytes |
| 1 gigabytes | 210 megabytes |
SLOT 8: Software
- Copyright for software:
| Freeware (open source) | Shareware | Groupware (e.g.: email) | Proprietary software (close source). |
| Function | Intermediary between program and hardware. |
| Interface | Interaction between human and machine. |
| Platform | Hardware architecture and software framework where the combination allows software to run. |
DAY 3:
SLOT 9: Multimedia
- Multimedia includes a combination of text, audio, still images, animation, video, or interactivity content forms.
- Task: Draw a mind map related multimedia.
Animation:
- Introduce the animation creator software such as Blender, it’s a free and open-source 3D CG software.
- Maya also a very powerful software but expensive and high requirement.
Power Point exercise:
- Make animation of moving ship & airplane in Power Point.
- Make 3D text with Power Point.
- Search icon (such as home & other buttons) from www.iconarchive.com for design work.
- Differences between image file formats
| JPG | Size small but no transparent background. |
| GIF | Transparency, only support 256 colours (24-bit RGB). |
| PNG | Transparency, able to support 32-bit RGBA colours. |
- Linear presentation & non-linear presentation.
