  1. Information Processing Cycle IP10

  2. What is the Information Processing Cycle? • These are the steps that are taken to convert raw facts, which is data, into information. It starts with data collection. • The 4 basic operations of the information processing cycle are input, processing, output, storage and/or distribution. • A computer is the machine that performs the cycle.

  3. IP Cycle:

  4. Start with a cow: • The cow is at the beginning of the IP Cycle. • This is the origination- Putting through thoughts into words. • This is dealing with raw data or facts that have been collected already.

  5. Production: • Eating is just a natural part of life for cows. • This the production part of the information processing cycle. • Production-Keying the originators text into the computer.

  6. Process: • Milk is used for many different kinds of good foods. • This action of milking the cow can be considered part of the process- editing, proofreading and revisions.

  7. Output: • After milking the cows, farmers have to get the milk ready to transport to the manufacturer. • This is the Output part of the IP Cycle. • Output- printing out the document (hardcopy) of reading it from the screen (softcopy)

  8. Storage: • Once the manufacturer has the milk, the milk has to be pasteurized. • This is can be considered the storage part of the cycle. • Storage-saving the document on a USB or filing it in a filing cabinet.

  9. Replication: • Once the milk is pasteurized it can be made into many different kinds of milk products. • This is like Replication- making copies of the document.

  10. Distribution: • Finally, the products are sent to retail stores so that we can buy them. • This is Distribution- getting the finished documents to the receiver by hand or electronically (fax or email).

  11. Your Analogy! • Your assignment now is to come up with your own Information Processing Cycle analogy. • You must be creative with your analogies. • They must include: Origination, Production, Process, Output, Storage, Replication, and Distribution.

  12. Analogy Cont’d: • You can use any object, animal or food for your analogies. • Here are some examples: • Dishwasher • Car • Sandwiches • Washing Machine • Bison

  13. Analogy Cont’d: • You can work in pairs or you can do this on your own. • Remember to keep the analogies clean and appropriate! • PLUS!! You will be presenting these analogies to the class on Monday Sept.15. • As well, you must show the connection between your analogy and the actual Information Processing Cycle.

  14. Remember to Include: • Origination- the raw data or facts • Production- keying the data into the computer • Process- editing and proofreading • Output- printing out the document • Storage- saving the document • Replication- making copies • Distribution- emailing finished product
