Class Experience

In this class, I will teach students some basics of Information Technology (IT). There is not any outside material required to participate. 
Topics include the definition of IT, the history, present state, and future, like in the use of holograms. I’ll discuss hardware, software, and basic coding. I will also share some short videos throughout the lecture. After my PowerPoint presentation (50-55 minutes), there will be some time for questions and answers. Throughout the presentation, students can communicate through the chat.
