|
## Prior learning/place of lesson in scheme of work
|
||
|
|
||
|
Learn how to **set brightness** of an image `set brightness` to set the brightness of the LED screen. We will be learning how to set the brightness of the LED screen using LED show LEDs, on button pressed and set brightness.

## Progression Pathways / Computational Thinking Framework
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### Algorithms
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Uses diagrams to express solutions.(AB)
|
||
|
* Recognises that different algorithms exist for the same problem (AL) (GE)
|
||
|
* Represents solutions using a structured notation (AL) (AB)
|
||
|
* Can identify similarities and differences in situations and can use these to solve problems (pattern recognition)(GE)
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### Programming & Development
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Creates programs that implement algorithms to achieve given goals (AL)
|
||
|
* Selects the appropriate data types(AL) (AB
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### Information Technology
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Collects, organizes, and presents data and information in digital content (AB)
|
||
|
* Makes appropriate improvements to solutions based on feedback received, and can comment on the success of the solution (EV)
|
||
|
* Recognises ethical issues surrounding the application of information technology beyond school.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Computational Thinking Concept: AB = Abstraction; DE = Decomposition; AL = Algorithmic Thinking; EV = Evaluation; GE = Generalisation
