2.3 Problem Solving Process
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

In this lesson, students will engage in socio-political critique as they think through what might happen when people fail to successfully complete different parts of the problem-solving process. Students will engage in a case study of Summit Learning, a “personalized” learning platform that led to protests and walkouts. They will think through how the designers of Summit Learning failed to solve their problem, and then make a plan to solve a problem of their own using the problem-solving process.

4.1 Input, Output & Variables Unplugged (ECS+Python)
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

In this activity, students will use a model of a computer, taking the form of a sort of board game, to explore writing programs that include input, output, variables, and arithmetic. Students will read, write, and debug pseudocode as they work on solving simple programming problems using manipulatives. This lesson is part of the ECS+Python lesson set, providing supplemental Python curricular material for the Exploring Computer Science curriculum.

4.2 Input, Output & Variables Coding Practice (ECS+Python)
Unrestricted Use
CC BY
Rating
0.0 stars

"In this lesson, students will read and trace a “Hello World'' Python program to learn how to display simple output. Then, they will create an “Addition Calculator” to learn how to work with variables and arithmetic operators. At the end, students will modify and complete partially-written Python programs, applying their knowledge of variables and arithmetic operations. This lesson is part of CodeVA's ECS+Python lesson set, providing alternative units for the Exploring Computer Science curriculum covering basic Python coding concepts.

4.5 Conditionals & Randomization Coding Practice (ECS+Python)
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

In this lesson, students will explore the “Testing Random Numbers” program to learn how to generate random numbers and use if-statements to make comparisons. Then, they will create a “Roll the Dice Game” to learn how to work conditionals and random numbers. At the end, students will create a simple program applying their knowledge of randomization and conditional control structures. This lesson is part of CodeVA's ECS+Python lesson set, providing alternative units for the Exploring Computer Science curriculum covering basic Python coding concepts.

4.6 Loops & Logic Coding Practice (ECS+Python)
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

In this lesson, students will implement Python programs that use “while” loops and logical operations as they consider how they might make their programs more interactive and control the flow of commands in their programs. They’ll read and modify examples, explore the new concepts through paired programming, and complete a short mini-project where they will demonstrate their new skills. This lesson is part of CodeVA's ECS+Python lesson set, providing alternative units for the Exploring Computer Science curriculum covering basic Python coding concepts.

ECS 2.17 Minimum Spanning Trees
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

Students will use minimum spanning trees to analyze a problem and provide insights into addressing the problem. The lesson provides detailed support around analyzing transportation infrastructure in their community and assessing its impact on the lives of different people who use it. Students create minimum spanning trees based on data, solve the trees to generate insights about the data, and communicate those insights along with policy recommendations based on their analysis.
