It is suitable for use in universities, colleges and technical schools with intermediate students who already know how to handle the common English sentence patterns but who want to improve and extend their language skills in the context of IT.
Little or no previous knowledge of Information Technology is assumed, but if students work through the lecture carefully they will certainly learn a great deal about it since the material does embrace all the basic concepts of Information Technology. There are 13 lessons covering a wide range of current IT topics using a variety of texts and visual material taken from textlectures, newspapers, popular computing magazines, Internet newsgroups, Webpages, manuals, and advertisements. The aim is to help students to acquire and develop the skills they will need in order to learn the subject of Information Technology. Emphasis is placed on developing reading skills; important lexical items are isolated for special attention and significant points of grammar are thoroughly treated and revised.
The lecture also includes a comprehensive glossary of current IT terminology with Vietnamese translation, the answer key as well as many teaching notes. It is user-friendly to both teachers and students and its clear layout, using both photos and graphics, will make it a very popular choice for those wishing to acquire what are now regarded by many to be mandatory skills for employees in almost every part of the workforce. Having many years of experience of teaching Information technology in English and teaching English for Computing, the authors have devoted much time and effort to compile this lecture of English for Information Technology appropriate to the Vietnamese environment. Nevertheless, the lecture cannot escape from shortcomings that the authors would like to insist the tolerance from the users of the lecture and to thank them for their comments and remarks that will be valuable for the next publication.

In pairs, discuss these questions 1) Have you got a computer at home, school or work? What kind is it? 2) How often do you use it? What do you use it for? 3) What are the main components and features of your computer system? B. In pairs, label the elements of this computer system 2.What is a computer? A. Read the text What is a computer? A computer is an electronic machine which can accept data in a certain form, process the data, and give the results of the processing in a specified format as information.
First, data is fed into the computer’s memory. Then, when the program is run, the computer performs a set of instructions and processes the data. Finally, we can see the results (the output) on the screen or in printed form. A computer system consists of two parts: hardware and software.
Hardware is any electronic or mechanical part you can see or touch. Software is a set of instructions, called a program, which tells the computer what to do. There are three basic hardware sections: the central processing unit (CPU), main memory and peripherals. Perhaps the most influential components is the central processing unit.
Its function is to execute program instructions and coordinate the activities of all the other units. In a way, it is the “brain” of the computer. The main memory (a collection of RAM chips) holds the instructions and data which are being processed by the CPU. Peripherals are the physical units attached to the computer.
They include storage devices and input/output devices. Storage devices (hard drives, DVD drives or flash drives) provide a permanent storage of both data and programs. Disk drives are used to read and write data on disks. Input devices enable data to go into the computer’s memory.
The most common input devices are the mouse and the keyboard. Output devices enable us to extract the finished product from the system. For example, the computer shows the output on the monitor or prints the results onto paper by means of a printer. On the rear panel of the computer there are several ports into which we can plug a wide range of peripherals – a modem, a digital camera, a scanner, etc.
They allow 8 communication between the computer and the devices. Modem desktop PCs have USB ports and memory card readers on the front panel. A USB A USB port connector Match these words from the text (1-9) which the correct meanings (a-i) 1. The brain of the computer 2.
