Input/Output

This week's lecture was about input and output devices. For example, we discussed the digital camera. The pixels per inch (PPI) divided by the resolution of the camera determines the size of the picture you'll need to have a clear image. This may seem like a simple thing to know, but when we help charities manage their events, promote their events, and later, tell the world about the (hopeful) success of these events, its important to use this to make the visuals as clear as possible. In fact, it would be ideal to have a team of photographers just to cover charity events connected with Charities Connect.
Another thing we talked about briefly last week was Quick Response Codes. Since QR Codes are so easy and free to use, this is a perfect way to help promote charities, and have a little fun while you're doing it. Charities could use these to give more information to the public about what they're doing in an easy to use way that more people are becoming familiar with. In fact, companies that want to be associated with charities can take advantage of this, and put special offers in QR codes put out by charities.
