The first video in the Computer Software series, part of our Introduction to Computers course. This video looks at the general types of software, software development, the software development life cycle, as well as explains what computer programers do.
Welcome to one of the most geeky videos in the entire series. This video will introduce you to the computer boot process, the way a computer starts from the moment you turn the computer on, till the operating system kicks in.
In the previous video we looked at the basics of operating systems. In this video we take a look at the current operating systems available to consumer. In addition to looking at Windows, we also cover the current Mac OS X, Linux and Mobile Operating systems.

The first video in our database lesson, part of the Introduction to Computer series.
This video looks at the basics of databases. We define database, as well as key terms to know.
Database Management Systems is the software that allows us to create and use a database. This video looks at the DBMS, their functions, some examples of popular software solutions and a quick look at Structured Query Language (SQL)
The database management software is the program used to create and mange the database. The database model is the architecture the DBMS used to store objects within that database.
Our final database video. This one looks at some odds and ends. We examine: Data Warehouse, Data Mining, Big Data. I also talk about the ethics of data mining from the NSA and CDC, and how they are different.
We also give out top picks for the lesson.
