How Might We Question:
How can we design and build a solution using computer science to help solve a real-world problem?
Problem:
Computer science plays an important role in our society. To put it simply, computer science is the practice of using computers and/or computer systems to help solve real world problems. Real world problems exist everywhere and range from everyday dilemmas like remembering to wash our hands before lunch and struggling to carry a heavy book bag off the bus, to complex issues such as building earthquake resistant structures and cleaning up oil spills in the ocean. As computer science allows us to develop new and innovative technologies, we are able to solve more real world problems and help more people.
Identify one real-world problem that is currently taking place in your school, community, or home that interests you. Research the problem you identified and design a technology based solution to help solve the problem. This could include, but is not limited to, robotics, hardware and software design or artificial intelligence.
