6. digital footprints
Did you know that everything you do online leaves a trace?  It’s true. It’s called a digital footprint, and while it may seem invisible to you right now, other people can see it, including your friends, family, your future college or employer, and even companies that want to sell you something.

13. binary

14. Does a computer communicate the same way that we do?
No. Deep down, a computer is translating every piece of information that it gets into its own simply processed language called binary

15. What is binary?
The binary number system is a base-2 number system. This means it only has two numbers:
0 and 1
The number system that we normally use is the decimal number system. It has 10 numbers
0-9

16. Why use binary numbers?
Binary numbers are very useful in electronics and computer systems.
Digital electronics can easily work with a sort of “on” or “off” system where “on” is a 1 and “off” is a zero.

17. Key words
BINARY – A notation that utilizes only two options for each selection
BIT – short for “Binary Digit”. It is one digit’s location in a binary number
BYTE - a group of 8 binary digits or bits
DECODE – convert a coded message into something familiar
ENCODE – convert a familiar message into code
ASCII – “American Standard Code for Information interchange” encoding of characters

18. Who can remember how many digits are in a byte?
On the piece of paper, you will write 40 0’s and 1’s in any order.
As neat as possible
Hand up your piece of paper when you are done

19. Create a table
9 columns
6 rows

20. Decode: convert a coded message into something familiar

22. Friendly competition Groups of 5 (if 6 rotate every round)
Hold a binary card (16 dots, 8 dots, 4 dots, 2 dots, 1 dot)
This a short byte
When the number appears you need to work together to create that number

35. Create your binary brick
Choose 1 familiar message to encode
Open Room ? > Digital Technologies > binary brick – original
Save as binary brick – your name
Fill in your binary brick and print it off
Cut it out and grab some blutak to put on a white brick in the corridor
