## What the teacher needs to know / QuickStart Computing Glossary
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
**Program:** A stored set of instructions encoded in a language understood by the computer that does some form of computation, processing input and/or stored data to generate output.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
**Algorithm:** An unambiguous set of rules or a precise step-by-step guide to solve a problem or achieve a particular objective. The guided tutorial follows a algorithm and is a precise step-by-step guide to solve a problem
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
**Loop:** A block of code repeated automatically under the program’s control. The blink program introduces Forever. The forever loop repeats code in the background forever.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
**Command:** An instruction for the computer to execute, written in a particular programming language.

|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Algorithm: An unambiguous set of rules or a precise step-bystep guide to solve a problem or achieve a particular objective.
|
|
||||||
* Computational thinking: Thinking about systems or problems in a way that allows computer systems to be used to model or solve these.
|
|
||||||
* Hardware: The physical systems and components of digital devices; see also software.
|
|
||||||
* Programmable toys: Robots designed for children to use, accepting input, storing short sequences of simple instructions and moving according to this stored program.
|
|
||||||
* Script: A computer program typically executed one line at a time through an interpreter, such as the instructions for a Scratch character.
|
|
||||||
* Sequence: To place program instructions in order, with each executed one after the other.
|
|
||||||
* Simulation: Using a computer to model the state and behaviour of real-world (or imaginary) systems, including physical or social systems; an integral part of most computer games.

Learn how to creating **conditionals**, `if condition do` to conditionally run code depending on whether a condition is true or not. We will be learning how to create a fortune telling app using local variable and conditionals (If), input on shake as well as simple commands, such as show string, show number, and clear screen.

## Progression Pathways / Computational Thinking Framework
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Algorithms
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Designs solutions (algorithms) that use repetition and two-way selection, ie if, then and else.(AL)
|
|
||||||
* Uses diagrams to express solutions.(AB)
|
|
||||||
* Recognises that different solutions exist for the same problem (AL) (AB) Understands that iteration is the repetition of a process such as a loop (AL)
|
|
||||||
* Represents solutions using a structured notation (AL) (AB)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Programming & Development
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Creates programs that implement algorithms to achieve given goals (AL)
|
|
||||||
* Declares and assigns variables(AB)
|
|
||||||
* Understands the difference between, and appropriately uses if and if, then and else statements(AL)
|
|
||||||
* Uses a variable and relational operators within a loop to govern termination (AL) (GE)
|
|
||||||
* Uses a range of operators and expressions e.g. Boolean, and applies them in the context of program control. (AL)
|
|
||||||
* Selects the appropriate data types(AL) (AB
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Data & Data Representation
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Understands the difference between data and information(AB)
|
|
||||||
* Performs more complex searches for information e.g. using Boolean and relational operators(AL) (GE) (EV)
|
|
||||||
* Defines data types: real numbers and Boolean (AB)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### 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 Understands how search engines rank search results (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)
|
|
||||||
* 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
