Computer systems are ubiquitous and yet they are unlike any other product or system; they appear magical and can also be notoriously difficult to work with and manage. This unit’s goal is to demystify computer systems so that you can understand and design them yourself. You will study computers, networks, operating systems and the Web. Raspberry Pi computers (https://www.raspberrypi.org/) will be used throughout the unit and you will design and build your own small computer system using a Raspberry Pi.
