Workshop KS2, KS3 & KS4
KS2: ObjectivesAlgorithms • Algorithms can be
represented symbolically [flowcharts] or using instructions in a clearly defined language [turtle graphics].
• Algorithms can include selection (if) and repetition (loops).
Programs• A computer program is a
sequence of instructions written to perform a specified task with a computer.
• The idea of a program as a sequence of statements written in a programming language [Scratch]
• One or more mechanisms for selecting which statement sequence will be executed, based upon the value of some data item
• One or more mechanisms for repeating the execution of a sequence of statements, and using the value of some data item to control the number of times the sequence is repeated
KS3: ObjectivesAlgorithms
• An algorithm is a sequence of precise steps to solve a given problem.
• A single problem may be solved by several different algorithms.
• The need for accuracy of both algorithm and data [difficulty of data verification; garbage in, garbage out]
Programs
• Variables and assignment.• The use of relational
operators and logic to control which program statements are executed, and in what order – Simple use of AND, OR and
NOT– Use of comparison operators

Summary• Creating Formula One drivers
• Creative and cross curricular (Rose Report 2009)
• Dependencies exist between DL, CS and IT
• Pedagogy (Challenging perceptions and expectations)
• Computer Science is more than just programming!
• Curriculum alignment
• Silent ‘C’ (Computing) in STEM
• Even more silent ‘C’ (Creativity) in STEM
