Computer Science · Computer Architecture
In a classroom activity, the teacher distributes flashcards labeled Registers, Cache, RAM, and Hard Disk to different student groups. Students must arrange themselves from 'fastest' to 'slowest' and justify processing time differences. They simulate a program execution, where frequently used data must be passed quickly between the CPU and the nearest memory. Groups reflect on why cache memory enhances system speed and why all data cannot be stored in cache due to cost and size limitations. Which learning outcome does this activity BEST support?
- 1Learning theoretical formulas of storage units only
- 2Categorizing memories by alphabetical order
- 3Understanding memory hierarchy through experiential learning✓
- 4Memorizing device definitions
Correct answer
