1) Remove background details from an everyday process to highlight essential properties. Examples: When making a sandwich, the type of bread, condiments, meats, and/or vegetables do not affect the fact that one is making a sandwich. |
||||||||||||
|
2) Define a process as a function. Example: Functions or sets of steps combined to produce a process: turning off your alarm + getting out of bed + brushing your teeth + getting dressed = morning routine. |

Algorithms

|
3) Create pseudocode that uses conditionals. Examples: Using if/then/else (If it is raining then bring an umbrella else get wet). |
||||||||||||
|
4) Differentiate between flowcharts and pseudocode. Example: Flowcharts use shapes to indicate what to do at each step while pseudocode uses text. |
||||||||||||
|
5) Identify algorithms that make use of sequencing, selection or iteration. Examples: Sequencing is doing steps in order (put on socks, put on shoes, tie laces); selection uses a Boolean condition to determine which of two parts of an algorithm are used (hair is dirty? True, wash hair; false, do not); iteration is the repetition of part of an algorithm until a condition is met (if you're happy and you know it clap your hands, when you're no longer happy you stop clapping).

14) Discuss digital globalization and Internet censorship. Examples: Software that scans a website for posts about potential threats; a person's ability to order a product directly from a manufacturer in another part of the world; a student in Africa can take an online math course created in the United States; web-hosting company prevents posting of content. |
