Level 3
Pupils
use
ICT
to
save
information
and
to
find
and
use
appropriate
stored
information,
following
straightforward
lines
of
enquiry.
They
use
ICT
to
generate,
develop,
organise
and
present
their
work.
They
share
and
exchange
their
ideas
with
others.
They
use
sequences
of
instructions
to
control
devices
and
achieve
specific
outcomes.
They
make
appropriate
choices
when
using
ICT-based
models
or
simulations
to
help
them
find
things
out
and
solve
problems.
They
describe
their
use
of
ICT
and
its
use
outside
school.
This flow chart currently controls the mimics on the car picture. When the key is out and the door is open the lights should go on and the horn should sound. It is partially correct but does not work exactly as intended or it would be level 4. With the appropriate equipment; buzzers, lights and a green box, the children could make a working model of the car and use this program to programme it.
The
next
step
is
to
test
their
procedures
carefully
and
try
to
make
the
working
model
more
accurate.
The
flow
chart
would
benefit
from
clearer
organisation,
calling
on
sub-routines
-
if
these
were
in
place
it
would
be
Level
4.
