Learning Target: I can understand the role of algorithms in modern life and in computer science.
Task 1: Algorithms in our Modern World
Make a copy of the assignment called Algorithms in our Modern World. Watch the video "The Secret Rules of Modern Living: Algorithms" on Netflix to understand the role of algorithms in modern life and how computer science contributes to all areas of society. Make sure to complete the worksheet by writing a summary answering the following questions about each identified algorithm:
1) How does the algorithm work?
2) What problem does it solve?
3) Give an example of how it is used in the modern world.
When finished, email me with the completed document linked (and shared) prior to the end of quarter late work deadline.
(Please write a quality summary (3 sentences a piece) about each algorithm on your assignment sheet. Conventions do matter.)
