Basics of Computer Science

The main objective of the course is to make the students familiar with the basic knowledge of computer and information science. Over the course of study, students will develop the capacity to use software tools in an independent manner, searching for information and to prepare project assignments, presentations, and other materials.
The course will acquaint students with select language technologies and the basics of algorithmic thinking.

Basic knowledge about the work with computer.

● Basic knowledge of computer science:
◦ History and use of computers
◦ Introduction to informatics
◦ Structure and operation of the computer
◦ Computer hardware and software
◦ Computer networks and internet
◦ Trends in computer science
● basic skills that are necessary for computer-based processing and analysis of texts in linguistics
● use of the Internet as a source of information and tool for linguists
● use of electronic dictionaries and concordancers
● Use of language technologies
● programming basics
◦ basics of algorithmic thinking
◦ operational acquaintance with the selected programming language

At the end of the course, the students will be able to understand and use:
● computers and its components,
● essential concepts of computer and information science
● different input and output devices
● computer hardware and software
● different types of application software
