Objectives[edit]

What are we going to learn today?

  • You will review conditionals and abstraction. You will do this through the date fashion problem set.
  • You will review your project on our design project. All of you will work on your design project.

Explore[edit]

What kinds of hands-on/minds-on activities will we be doing?

Explain[edit]

What are some higher order thinking questions I will use to solicit explanations and help you to justify your explanations?

Extend[edit]

How will you develop a more sophisticated understanding of the concept?

Evaluate[edit]

How will you demonstrate that you have achieved the lesson objective?

Homework[edit]

What is your homework and when is it due?

  • We must work on our design project. Everyone is required to respond to Mr. MacKenty's feedback on the discussion page for your project. This homework is due at the start of our next class.

As a computer scientist, you have[edit]

These are the characteristics every computer scientist works towards.

  • Confidence in dealing with complexity
  • Persistence in working with difficult problems
  • Tolerance for ambiguity
  • The ability to deal with open-ended problems
  • The ability to communicate and work with others to achieve a common goal or solution

Standards[edit]


  • Apply analysis, design, and implementation techniques to solve problems (e.g., use one or more software lifecycle models).
  • Describe a software development process used to solve software problems (e.g., design, coding, testing, verification).
  • Use collaborative tools to communicate with project team members (e.g., discussion threads, wikis, blogs, version control, etc.).
