Gradeband

7 - 8

Sub-Concept Area: Modeling and Simulation

7-8.CT.1 - Compare the results of alternative models or simulations to determine and evaluate how the input data and assumptions change the results.

Sub-Concept Area: Data Analysis and Visualization

7-8.CT.2 - Collect and use digital data in a computational artifact.

7-8.CT.3 - Refine and visualize a data set in order to persuade an audience.

Sub-Concept Area: Abstraction and Decomposition

7-8.CT.4 - Write a program using functions or procedures whose names or other documentation convey their purpose within the larger task.

7-8.CT.5 - Identify multiple similar concrete computations in a program, then create a function to generalize over them using parameters to accommodate their differences.

Sub-Concept Area: Algorithms and Programming

7-8.CT.6 - Design, compare and refine algorithms for a specific task or within a program.

7-8.CT.7 - Design or remix a program that uses a variable to maintain the current value of a key piece of information.

8th - Industrialization Algorithms (Social Studies)

7-8.CT.8 - Develop or remix a program that effectively combines one or more control structures for creative expression or to solve a problem.

7-8.CT.9 - Read and interpret code to predict the outcome of various programs that involve conditionals and repetition for the purposes of debugging.

7-8.CT.10 - Document the iterative design process of developing a computational artifact that incorporates user feedback and preferences.
