Learning Resource Type

Classroom Resource

Subject Area

Digital Literacy and Computer Science

Grade(s)

6, 7, 8

Overview

Building on the screens that the class designed in the previous lesson, teams combine screens into a single app. Simple code can then be added to make button clicks change to the appropriate screen.

DLCS18.6.30

Discuss and apply the components of the problem-solving process.

UP:DLCS18.6.30

Vocabulary

  • problem-solving process

Knowledge

Students know:
  • when solving problems, one should identify the problem, identify possible solutions, evaluate to select a best solution, implement the solution, evaluate the solution and/or seek feedback.

Skills

Students are able to:
  • identify a problem.
  • identify possible solutions.
  • evaluate to select a best solution.
  • implement a solution.
  • evaluate a solution.
  • seek feedback.
  • revise an artifact based on feedback.

Understanding

Students understand that:
  • problem-solving is a process that can take multiple iterations.

DLCS18.7.30

Apply the problem-solving process to solve real-world problems.

UP:DLCS18.7.30

Vocabulary

  • problem-solving process

Knowledge

Students know:
  • the steps to the problem-solving process.

Skills

Students are able to:
  • select and dissect a problem.
  • seek solutions.
  • select a best alternative.

Understanding

DLCS18.8.15

Critique computational artifacts, including options for accessibility for all users, with respect to the needs of a global culture.

UP:DLCS18.8.15

Knowledge

Students know:
  • that one's access to resources can alter the outcome of an artifact.

Skills

Students are able to:
  • use empathy and/or someone else's perspective when critiquing works.

Understanding

Students understand that:
  • all people have unique perspectives that should be considered.

DLCS18.8.29

Create an artifact to solve a problem using ideation and iteration in the problem-solving process.

UP:DLCS18.8.29

Vocabulary

  • ideation
  • iteration
  • problem-solving process

Knowledge

Students know:
  • that problem solving is a process to find the best solution.
  • that through ideation and iteration, the final product or artifact may be a more polished or appropriate solution.

Skills

Students are able to:
  • gather initial data about a topic.
  • informally propose a solution.
  • gather feedback on informal proposal.
  • design a solution to a chosen problem.

Understanding

Students understand that:
  • problem-solving is a process.
  • products or artifacts may undergo many revisions after data is reviewed and feedback is received.
