LESSON NOTE FOR WEEK FIVE (14/02/2022-18/02/2022)

SUBJECT: DATA PROCESSING


CLSASS: SSI (SILVER, BRONZE, COPPER AND PLATINUM)
AVREAGE AGE: 13 YEARS.
DURATION: 40 MINUTES PER PERIOD
TOPIC: INFORMATION PROCESSING
Information processing
Information processing is the process of changing information from one form to another detectable
by an observer. In computer, an information processor changes the form of the presentation of a
text file. Information processing can be specifically defined as the conversion of latent (hidden)
information into manifest information. Latent and manifest information is defined through the
following terms 1. Equivocation (what value the sender has actually chosen) 2. Dissipation (what
the receiver has actually received) and 3. Transformation (the changes that takes place).

Information processing can be sequential or parallel, either of which may be centralized


distributed.

Procedures for information processing


Information processing procedures is defined as the sequence of events in information
transformation. It is also known as information processing cycle. Information in the computer exist
in two states (binary) known as digital information. It worth to note that modern information is
characterized by extensive change from analog and digital form.
The following are the stages/ procedures for information processing.
1. Collation of information
2. Organization of information
3. Analysis of information
4. Interpretation of information.
Collation of information
Collation is the assembly of written information in to standard order. One type of information
collation is called alphabetization; thought collation is not limited to letter ordering by alphabet,
listing of words or names into alphabetical order is the basis of the most office filing systems,
library catalogs and reference books. Collation is difference from classification in that
classification is concerned with arranging information into logical categories while collation is
concerned with the ordering of those categories.
Organization of information
Organization of information is the process of arranging information using a particular pattern. In
any collection, physical objects are related by order. The ordering may be random or according to
some characteristic called a key. some characteristics may be intrinsic property of an object such
as weight, size, shape and color or they may assigned from some agreed-upon set such as object
class or date of purchase. In most cases, orders are imposed on a set of information objects for two
reasons: to create their inventory and to facilitate locating specific object in the set.
Ways of organizing information
1. Alphabetical
2. Chronologically
3. Statistically
4. Subject
5. Geographical
Analysis of information
Information analysis is the science of evaluating information content, and refining information to
build facts. It involves breaking of complex information into piece in order to under study it.
Information analysis works both for managers who use a non-quantitative process and for those
who use a quantitative invest process. It is used to determine whether the available information
can add value to investment process.
Interpretation of information
During the interpretation stage, researchers assess the usefulness of their information and reflect
to develop personal meaning. Information requires interpretation to become knowledge. The
interpretation stage engages researcher in the process of analyzing, synthesizing and evaluating
information to determine its relevancy and usefulness to their research question or information
need. These stages of information processing require students to be trained on a critical thinking
skill.
