WELCOME TO THE COURSE TEMPLATE!

Welcome to the "Introduction to Computer Information Systems," CIS-121! This course is an overview of computers and computer information systems. The material we will cover will help you better understand what goes on inside the computer(s) you use, and how it operates to do the activities you want it to do for you. We will learn about the history of computers, the Internet and the "web," as well as what components make up a computer. We will study how the computer connects to networks and communicates across the world. We will also have an exercise on purchasing a computer - it's a really fun exercise and you will gain a lot from it.
