The learning outcomes of this activity are for children to: - understand how soil texture influences the amount of water and air it holds - ...
This lesson sequence focuses on the incremental or Agile approach to development and encourages students to follow the evolution of a temperature conversion tool for a Food Technology teacher. It uses an Excel spreadsheet application as the prototyping tool.
This lesson sequence intentionally uses a visual based programming tool to introduce designing and validating algorithms. Those students who complete this task can move to code the result in any text based language with which they are familiar.
This lesson sequence aims to identify strengths and weaknesses of past, present and future methods of data storage and recognise the risks and benefits for users. Students explore specific “data dilemmas”.
In this lesson sequence students learn to code separate modules that perform discrete functions but collectively meet the needs of the solution. They select the most appropriate algorithm based on the type of problem.
This lesson sequence provides an introduction to the skill of decomposition by having students develop discrete modules which together serve a single need: a maths teacher asks for a program that can be used to demonstrate aspects of maths. This sequence can be used in conjunction with ‘Comparing and selecting appropriate ...
This lesson sequence offers an approaches to teaching object-oriented principles using visual programming. It attempts to address the problem that many of programming languages are too complex and their environments confusing for many students.
