Basic computer operations (hardware and software)

In Class 9 Artificial Intelligence, this topic from “ICT (Information & Communication Technology) Skills-I” introduces the basic operations needed to use a computer confidently. Students distinguish hardware—the physical parts such as the keyboard, mouse, monitor, processor, and storage devices—from software, including the operating system and applications. They learn how these components work together for input, processing, output, and storage, along with essential tasks such as starting and shutting down a system, managing files, and using devices safely.
