## Class
|
||||
|
||||
Year 7
|
||||
|
||||
## Prior learning/place of lesson in scheme of work
|
||||
|
||||
Learn how to use the **pin pressed**, `on pin pressed` to run code when the user holds the GND pin with one hand, and presses pin 0 with the other hand, thus completing a circuit. We will be learning how to create a love meter using input on pin pressed, a local variable, math random, If (conditional) as well as simple commands, such as show number, pause, and show string.

## What the teacher needs to know/QuickStart Computing Glossary
|
||||
|
||||
* Hardware: The physical systems and components of digital devices; see also software.
|
||||
* Input: Data provided to a computer system, such as via a keyboard, mouse, microphone, camera or physical sensors.
|
||||
* Output: The information produced by a computer system for its user, typically on a screen, through speakers or on a printer, but possibly through the control of motors in physical systems.
|
||||
* 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.
|
||||
* Variables: A way in which computer programs can store, retrieve or change data, such as a score, the time left, or the user’s name.

## Objectives
|
||||
|
||||
* learn how to run code when the user holds the GND pin in one hand, and presses pin 0 with the other hand, thus completing a circuit; when you run a script with this function in a web browser, click pin 0 on the simulator
|
||||
* learn how to a create a variable for a place where you can store and retrieve data
|
||||
* learn how Boolean operators take Boolean inputs and evaluates to a Boolean output
|
||||
* learn how to return a random number
|
||||
* learn how to show a number on the LED screen
|
||||
* learn how to pause your code for the specified number of milliseconds
|
||||
* learn how to conditionally run code depending on whether a condition is true or not
|
||||
* learn how to show a string on the LED screen one character at a time (scrolling from left to right)
|
||||

## 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)
|
||||
* Uses logical reasoning to predict outputs, showing an awareness of inputs (AL)
|
||||
* Designs solutions by decomposing a problem and creates a sub-solution for each of these parts. (DE) (AL) (AB)
|
||||
* 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)
|
||||
* Uses filters or can perform single criteria searches for information.(AL)
|
||||
* 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)
|
||||
* 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)
|
||||
* Makes judgements about digital content when evaluating and repurposing it for a given audience (EV) (GE)
|
||||
* 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
