Input and Output Devices
by Angela Osborne
1. Mouse: Easy to use, but they can be easily broken. Makes choosing what you want to do on a computer easier. You would use your mouse for pointing instead of using arrow keys.
2. Input Devices
3. Keyboard: Needed to input information into the computer, such as typing a paper. However, they can be difficult to use for younger kids who have not yet learned to type.
4. Printer: Can be very useful with adding color to projects. However, replacing ink can get expensive.

6. Monitor: this output device displays computer information on the screen. This is important to have, so that you can see what you are doing on the computer, such as typing or web searches. A disadvantage might be that they can be fragile, so students would have to be careful when moving around them. `
