Elaboration (3) ACTDIP016

using software to automate calculations to help with interpreting data, for example using functions to make arithmetic calculations using multiple cells and summing cell ranges

Elaboration ACTDIP019

following a diagram of a simple method of sorting numbers or words

Elaboration (4) ACTDIK024

converting between decimal and 8-bit (1 byte) unsigned binary, covering whole numbers typically used for characters and RGB, for example 65 in decimal is 01000001 in 8-bit binary

Elaboration (3) ACTDEK002

exploring a system such as a marionette or Indonesian wayang kulit shadow puppet to see that by combining materials with forces movement can be created

Elaboration (4) ACTDEK002

combining materials and using forces in design, for example designing the door on a cage or a simple conveyor belt to move materials short distances

Elaboration (5) ACTDEK002

exploring how to manipulate materials using a range of tools, equipment and techniques to create movement, for example when constructing a toy boat that floats and moves

Elaboration (4) ACTDEP014

exploring the properties of materials to determine suitability, for example the absorbency of different fabrics or the strength of different resistant materials

Elaboration (3) ACTDEK031

producing prototypes and jigs to test functionality, including the use of rapid prototyping tools such as 3D printers

Elaboration (1) ACTDEP052

creating production flowcharts using digital technologies to ensure efficient, safe and sustainable sequences

sorting objects and events based on easily identified characteristics and using digital systems to represent patterns in data, for example sorting birthdates and presenting the patterns using seasonal symbols

Elaboration ACTDIP040

designing algorithms to solve real-world problems and describing algorithms using flow charts and structured English, for example START, END, IF and UNTIL

Elaboration (2) ACTDIP040

tracing algorithms to predict results and program state for a given input, for example desk checking or using an interactive debugging tool

Elaboration (3) ACTDIP040

using tracing techniques to test algorithms, for example desk checking an algorithm for a given input by stepping through the algorithm while keeping track of contents of the variables

Elaboration (2) ACTDEK004

exploring systems used in the classroom or community for creatively dealing with problems and needs, for example storage systems for equipment, traffic system flow for drop and go zones, the use of hoists and ramps to facilitate access

Elaboration (3) ACTDEP014

examining the structure and production of everyday products, services and environments to enhance their own design ideas

Elaboration ACTDEP024

exploring the steps involved in the process to satisfy a design brief, need or opportunity

Elaboration (3) ACTDEP025

representing and communicating design ideas using modelling and drawing standards including the use of digital technologies, for example scale; symbols and codes in diagrams; pictorial maps and aerial views using web mapping service applications

Elaboration ACTDEP039

explaining and interpreting drawings, planning and production steps needed to produce products, services or environments for specific purposes

Elaboration (1) ACTDEK043

examining and explaining the interaction between material properties and function of a common system, such as car brakes

Elaboration (2) ACTDEK043

analysing the relationship between materials of properties, forces and safety in engineered systems such as bridges
