LEARNING ACTIVITY SHEET IN COMPUTER SYSTEMS SERVICING 10

Name & Section: _____________________


Subject: Grade 10 – ICT Date: __________________
(Week 3)

*Identify tools needed in assembling computer in accordance with established procedures and check
against system requirements

General Directions: Do not write anything on this Learning Activity Sheet (LAS). Copy every significant detail
and write all answers on the worksheet/s provided.

Part I. Discussion of the Lesson

Computer hardware tools are handheld device that enables a person to install, remove, or perform a
specific task on a computer. Before any computer task/job takes place, oneself must be familiar first in
identifying and selecting appropriate computer hardware tools in accordance with the task requirements
and raise awareness in addressing hand tools safety concerns.

CLASSIFICATION OF HARDWARE TOOLS

In performing computer hardware assembly and repairs, it is very important to have a toolkit that
contains all the necessary tools. Computer Hardware tools are categories into four:

1. Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) Tools


2. Hand Tools
3. Cleaning Tools
4. Diagnostic Tools

1. Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) Tools – tools that prevents the sudden flow of electricity to avoid damage
to your computer components and parts.

 Anti-static strap – usually worn on your wrist to prevent


the occurrence of ESD.

 Anti-Static Mat – used to stand on or place hardware on to prevent static


electricity from building up.

 Anti-static spray – can be applied on floors, walls, ceilings, tools,


equipment, and workspaces to prevent building up of ESD

2. Hand Tools – are used in the performing task like computer assembly and computer repair, these tools are
manually operated by hand and are available individually or as part of a computer repair toolkit. Toolkits range
widely in size, quality, and price.
 Flat head screwdriver - is a hand tool used for tightening and
loosening slotted screws, has a flat wedge shape tip.

 Philips head screwdriver - is a hand tool for tightening and


loosening cross head screws, has a cross shape tip.

 Torx screwdriver - used for loosening or tightening screws with a


star-like depression at the end, a function often seen on a laptop.

 Hex driver - sometimes referred to as a nut driver, it is used to tighten nuts just like
a screwdriver tightens screws.

 Needle- nose plier – (also known as long-nose pliers)


characterized by long, tapering jaws of equal length. Used for
holding small portions.

 Tweezers - are tools used for picking up objects too small to be easily handled with
human hands.

 Wire cutter - is used for stripping and cutting wires.

 Flashlight - used to light up areas that you cannot see well.

 Part retriever - is used to retrieve screws, jumpers, fasteners, and other parts
and prevents them from getting mixed.

3. Cleaning Tools – are essentials when maintaining and repairing computers. Using the appropriate cleaning
tools helps ensure that computer components are not damaged during cleaning.

 Lint-free cloth - is a special type of cleaning cloth that wipes off dust
and other types of unwanted elements from computer parts without
scratching or leaving debris on them
 Computer Duster – softly brushes away dust from computer parts. This is commonly used for cleaning
computer keyboard.

 Compressed air - is a product used for cleaning or dusting electronic


equipment and other sensitive devices that cannot be cleaned using
water.

 Cable ties - are used to organize all kinds of cables, like those used with
a computer, an entertainment system, or in a network.

 Parts organizer - is a type of storage box featuring small compartments


for sorting components like screws, nails, bolts, washers etc.

4. Diagnostic Tools – are tools used for testing computer hardware to check for its
functionality.

 Multimeter - an electronic tool used to measure voltage, amps and resistance


across circuits. By attaching two leads to different parts of an electrical system,
learners can use multimeter to detect voltage and resistance levels, or
changes in electrical currents.

 Loopback Adapter is also called a loopback plug, used to test the basic
functionality of computer ports.

Checking of Hand Tools


 Once selected, use the tool for the purpose for which it was designed. Not all tools come with detailed
instructions, but there are those that do spell out the safety Do’s and Don’ts for your safety. If there are
set-up/use options, operator judgment must always be based on what is the safest way to use the tool.

Identifying Unsafe or Faulty Tools


Environmental Safety and Health Program requires the following:
1. All tools be kept in good condition with regular maintenance
2. The right tool be used for the job
3. Each tool be examined before use AND damaged or defective tools NOT to be used
4. Tools be operated according to manufacturer’s instructions
5. The right protective equipment for the tool and activity be used
Part II. Practice Test
Direction: Read and understand each statement carefully. Write TRUE if the statement is correct and FALSE
if it is wrong.
______1. Faulty tools are safe to use in repairing computers.
______2. Use hex driver to tighten and loosen screws that have hexagonal (six-sided) head.
______3. Diagnostic tools are used for testing computer hardware functionality.
______4. Flat screwdrivers are used to tighten and loosen star-like depression screws.
______5. Read and follow what is said on the computer manual before using the tools
______6. Turn the screwdriver clockwise to loosen and counterclockwise to tighten the screw.
______7. Use Phillips screwdriver when you are working with slotted screw.
______8. Always used the right tool for a right job
______9. Follow the organization’s OHS procedures and practices. Never wear Personal Protective Equipment
(PPE).
______10. Tools needed in performing task must be examined before using

Practice Test: TRUE or FALSE


1. False 6. False
2. True 7. False
3. True 8. True
4. False 9. False
5. True 10. True
Part III. Quiz
Direction: Below are different tasks/activities in undertaking a single computer operation, fill it in with the
appropriate computer hardware tools to be used in accomplishing the said task. Choose the letter of the
correct answer from the box below and write your answer beside the number.

_______1. Tightening cross-headed screws in assembling computer.


_______2. Testing the integrity of circuits and quality of electric flow on computer components
_______3. Organizing internal and external cables of a computer
_______4. Cleaning monitor screen
_______5. Wearing this tool on the wrist to prevent the occurrence of static electricity on the components of a
computer.
_______6. Loosening star-like depression screws from the hard disk drive (HDD)
_______7. Picking up small objects and components from computer that is hard to reached by hands
_______8. Wipes off dust and other types of unwanted elements from computer parts to avoid scratching them
