Intro to Tech Bundle | Operating Systems | Computer Hardware | Middle School
We have released a series of 3 modules of about 220 pages in total to introduce the students in the world of computing. As experienced technologists and teachers, we believe that a more structured approach to introducing kids to Computing is necessary. A lot of schools throw students directly into coding, while other schools offer AP CSP as their first and only Informational Technology Course. We know that understanding computing and IT will take a little more than that and it would also poten

Fundamentals of Operating Systems | Lecture | High School | Middle School
Many K12 Computer Science Curricula can be augmented with the important topic of Operating Systems. If students understand how Operating Systems work, they also become better programmers and better computer users.This module is the work of passion. Operating Systems were one of my favorite topics in the Computer Engineering College I attended. The course was taught by an excellent, passionate Professor who inspired me to learn more and more. That Professor (and his lab aid) inspired me so much
