2
Starter activity - Event Driven Imagine an icon on your desktop and list the events that are taking place; Right click Left click Double click Hover
3
Lesson Objectives 1. know the basics of linear non-linear programming 2. describe programming languages, dividing them into types: low-level and high-level (algorithmic, procedural, object-oriented) 3. know the basics of parallel programming
4
Programming a robot One of you is going to act as a robot. In your groups, come up with smallest set of commands need to get the robot to pick up and put paper, into a bin. You will have 7 minutes to prepare this task The importance here is for you here is to find a small instruction set to solve a complex problem.
5
high level & low level languages Definition of each type of language Comparison of each type of language Uses and examples of how these are used or have been used in the real world
6
high level & low level languages In pairs, compare high level to low level languages. Using the resources given to you and anything you can find, create a presentation, slideshow, dialogue, mind map or even a song to explore this topic. http://www.teach-ict.com/gcse_computing/ocr/GCSE_A451_topics.html http://www.teach-ict.com/gcse_computing/ocr/GCSE_A451_topics.html http://www.teach-ict.com/as_as_computing/ocr/H447/F453_home.html http://www.teach-ict.com/as_as_computing/ocr/H447/F453_home.html http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/A-level_Computing/AQA http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/A-level_Computing/AQA
