This unit of work introduces students (I use this with year 7) to the concepts of computational thinking and logical thinking. It is split into three fully differentiated sections:
1. Design an interactive story using a flowchart to identify the key decision points within your story.
2. Create an interactive story using PowerPoint, hyperlinking the slides to the correct locations.
3. Test and evaluate your story and make improvements where required.
I have included some slides to provide additional assistance, for example hyperlinking auto shapes, removing the on mouse click advancements, etc.
Alongside developing computational thinking skills, this unit is also an opportunity for students to develop their graphic design skills.
I have also included an example interactive story so students can get an idea of what they could create themselves, while considering what they could make even better themselves.
This resource is a perfect continuation from my Introduction Computational Thinking for KS3 resource!
