||
|
## Prior learning / place of lesson in scheme of work
|
||
|
|
||
|
Learn how to creating a message with a **string**, `show string` to write your message. We will be learning how to create a message using simple commands, such as show string and on button pressed.

## Objectives
|
||
|
|
||
|
* learn how to show a string on the LED screen one character at a time
|
||
|
* learn how to use to register an event handler that will execute whenever an input button is pressed

## Progression Pathways / Computational Thinking Framework
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### Algorithms
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Uses diagrams to express solutions.(AB)
|
||
|
* Uses logical reasoning to predict outputs, showing an awareness of inputs (AL)
|
||
|
* Represents solutions using a structured notation (AL) (AB)
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### Programming & Development
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Creates programs that implement algorithms to achieve given goals (AL)
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### Hardware & Processing
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Knows that computers collect data from various input devices, including sensors and application software (AB)
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### Communication Networks
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Demonstrates responsible use of technologies and online services, and knows a range of ways to report concerns (AL)
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### 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)
|
||
|
* Uses criteria to evaluate the quality of solutions, can identify improvements making some refinements to the solution, and future solutions (EV)
|
||
|
* Evaluates the appropriatness of digital devices, internet services and application software to achieve given goals (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
