S1 Computing Course
In S1, most pupils will be working within level 2 of the Expectation and Outcomes (E’s & O’s). The S1 course provides a number of experiences including learning how computers work, programming using a block programming environment such as Makecode and Scratch, webpage creation using basic HTML commands and physical computing using the Microbit. For Digital Literacy, a number of short topics in the use of packages such as spreadsheets will also be included. Opportunities to explore aspects of numeracy, literacy and health and wellbeing will be addressed throughout the year.
