Lesson 1.3
Speed and Space
Decide if it's memory or storage, then make the fix.
Free. No login. Needs a computer or tablet.
What students do
Eight customers have a computer that's slow, full or lost some work. Students decide if the problem is in memory (RAM) or storage, then close programs, free space, save or bring a file back.
What it adds to the lesson
The paper version of Speed and Space has students read six computer reports. Here they make each fix themselves and watch the RAM and storage bars show what it did.
