Mr. Carlton is so excited to share six short videos that teach How Computers Work! Over a year in the making, these educational videos star Bill Gates along tech leaders such as Apple designer May Li Khoe, xBox architect Nat Brown, and Adafruit founder, Limor Fried.

Because CS (Computer Science) is for everybody, Khan Academy has expanded the audience for these videos.

Khan Academy will include the videos in their CS offering.

About Adobe Illustrator

Illustrator is a vector drawing program. It is often used to draw illustrations, cartoons, diagrams, charts and logos. Unlike bitmap images that stores information in a grid of dots, Illustrator uses mathematical equations to draw out the shapes. This makes vector graphics scalable without the loss of resolution.

Advantages of Vector Graphics

  • Scalable without resolution loss

  • Lines are crisp and sharp at any sizes

  • Print at high resolution

  • Smaller file size

  • Good for drawing illustrations
