I can use computer science to share my point of view!
Project Description: Students will explore computer science concepts and create a Scratch project to show how computer science is changing the world.
This project was designed in partnership with UCSD Create. Click the green button below to view the CS + Community website with lessons and resources. Please note the structure and flow of this unit differs from the other STEAM units.
3-5.CS.2 Demonstrate how computer hardware and software work together as a system to accomplish tasks.
3-5.AP.12 Create programs that include events, loops, and conditionals.
3-5.AP.13 Decompose problems into smaller, manageable tasks which may themselves be decomposed.
3-5.AP.14 Create programs by incorporating smaller portions of existing programs, to develop something new or add more advanced features.
3-5.AP.15 Use an iterative process to plan and develop a program by considering the perspectives and preferences of others.
3-5.AP.17 Test and debug a program or algorithm to ensure it accomplishes the intended task.
3-5.AP.18 Perform different roles when collaborating with peers during the design, implementation, and review stages of program development.
3-5.IC.20 Discuss computing technologies that have changed the world, and express how those technologies influence, and are influenced by, cultural practices.
3-5.IC.23 Describe reasons creators might limit the use of their work.
