Class   : 7th grade
Chapter : Classification of Computer
Topic   : Classification of Computer on the basis of Working Principle                                                                                                                          Duration: 45 minutes

Objective:

• Students will understand the basic working principles of different types of computers.
• Students will be able to classify computers based on their working principles.

Materials:

• Whiteboard and markers
• Projector and computer (optional)
• Handouts with a summary of classification types

Introduction (5 minutes):

1. Begin with a brief review of the previous class, summarizing what the students learned about the basic components of a computer.
2. Introduce the topic of the day: "Classification of Computers Based on Working Principle."
3. Discuss the importance of understanding how computers work and how they are classified.

Presentation (15 minutes):

1. Present an overview of the classification of computers based on their working principles:
   • Supercomputers
   • Mainframe computers
   • Minicomputers
   • Microcomputers (Personal computers)
   • Embedded computers
2. Explain each type briefly, highlighting their primary functions and characteristics.
3. Use visual aids or a projector to show images or diagrams of each type to help students grasp the concepts more effectively.

Activity (15 minutes):

1. Divide the class into small groups.
2. Provide each group with a set of scenarios or descriptions related to different types of computers.
3. Ask students to match each scenario with the correct type of computer from the list discussed earlier.
4. Encourage discussions within the groups and ensure that each member participates.

Class Discussion (5 minutes):

1. Bring the class back together and discuss the solutions as a whole group.
2. Allow students to ask questions and clarify any doubts they may have about the classification of computers.
3. Emphasize the real-world applications of each type of computer to reinforce their understanding.

Conclusion and Homework (5 minutes):

1. Summarize the key points covered in the lesson.
2. Assign a short homework task where students can research and find examples of each type of computer in real-life situations.
3. Remind students to review the classification principles before the next class.

Assessment:

• Monitor group activities to assess students' understanding during the activity.
• Evaluate homework assignments for individual comprehension of the classification principles.
