EVOC 518 Lesson Plan Form - Lesson 1

INSTRUCTOR: Leonard A. Moreno
HOURS: 3 of 24 minimum required
SUBJECT: Vocational - Basic Computer Repair - Hard Drives

The STUDENT PERFORMANCE Objective - (by the end of the lesson students will be able to):

Condition: Given an hard drive and a set of step-by-step instructions ...

Person: each student...

Performance: will configure and install a hard drive into a computer ...

Criteria: that works.

The EQUIPMENT and MATERIALS required for the lesson:

Handout - showing the step-by-step construction process.

Computer - from which the memory will be installed.

Hard Drive - the material to perform the task.

Cable - to connect the drive to the motherboard.

How INSTRUCTOR will FACILITATE student learning:

Introduction - Anticipatory Set (30 minutes)

Statement of objective (from above) - (By The End Of Lesson Students Will Be Able To)

Instructor shows working hard drive installation.

Instructor informs of different hard drive manufactures and types.

Tie in the importance of using step by step installation process.

Instruction - Key Concepts (30 minutes)

Manufacture types (IBM, Maxtor, Segate, Western Digital)

Hard drive types (IDE and SCSI) Integrated Drive Electronics / Small Computer System Interface

Demonstrate each step on the handout (see attached handout).

Checking for Understanding and Clarification (15 minutes)

Ask students questions about different types of manufactures.

Ask students to identify what IDE and SCSI are, and their difference.

Ask individual students questions about particular steps.

Guided and Independent Practice (1.5 hours)

Actual student practice will come after the demonstration.

Conclusion - Closure (15 minutes)

Reemphasize importance of the step by step process.

Encourage students to use handout as a guide.

How the students will be EVALUATED:

The student will demonstrate in a lab setting proper configuration of two IDE devices. The student will identify which drive is a master and which on is a slave. The student will identify the cable that is used and install it correctly. The student will install the hard drive and configure the proper BIOS settings. The student will have a working hard drive when the computer is turned on.

STEP 1: Get out the tools you'll need - Phillips screwdriver.	STEP 2: Ground yourself - static electricity can kill your computer.
STEP 3: Open your computer case - don't lose the screws or your placement.	STEP 4: Find the drive bay slot - its on the front of the case.
STEP 5: Find the jumper selector on the back - we will use a master configuration.	STEP 6: Find the mother connector for the hard drive - if there are two, use the one labeled primary.
STEP 7: Find the correct cable and connect it- the longest one to the motherboard, the other end to the drive. Remember that the red line is pin 1.	STEP 8: Mount the hard drive to the drive bay, find the correct screw alignment and secure.
STEP 9: Turn on the computer, get into the BIOS and configure it to read the hard drive. You should have a working hard drive!	STEP 10: Close your computer case - make sure everything goes back.
