This engaging activity will promote computational thinking, providing both a challenge and a competitive experience. Throughout this topic, students will understand the importance of coding efficiency by exploring a range of algorithmic solutions developed using code blocks. They will sequence instructions to develop a program which they will test and then make further refinements.
This topic comprises of a set of slides which support underpinning computational thinking concepts and provide the teacher with guidance and suggestions for further exploration.
