Elaboration (2) ACTDIP037

automating calculations, for example using absolute cell referencing to automatically extend formulas, and automating arithmetic calculations using built-in functions such as trigonometry, compound interest

Elaboration (3) ACTDIP037

simulating simple, iterative processes, for example modelling compound interest or ecological models using a spreadsheet

Elaboration (2) ACTDIK015

recognising that the numbers 0, 1, 2 and 3 could be represented by the patterns of two binary digits of 00, 01, 10 and 11

Elaboration (3) ACTDIP004

recognising sequences of instructions or events that are commonly experienced such as the sequence of traffic lights or instructions for recording a TV show or how their lunch order is taken and delivered

Elaboration ACTDIK015

recognising that digital systems represent all types of data using number codes that ultimately are patterns of 1s and 0s (called binary digits, which is why they are called digital systems)

Elaboration (1) ACTDIK015

explaining that binary represents numbers using 1s and 0s and these represent the on and off electrical states respectively in hardware and robotics

Elaboration (3) ACTDIK015

representing whole numbers in binary, for example counting in binary from zero to 15, or writing a friend’s age in binary

Elaboration (4) ACTDIK015

exploring how division by two can be used as a technique to determine the binary representation of any whole number by collecting remainder terms

Elaboration ACTDIP004

experimenting with very simple, step-by-step procedures to explore programmable devices, for example providing instructions to physical or virtual objects or robotic devices to move in an intended manner, such as following a path around the classroom

Elaboration (3) ACTDIP009

using software to sort and calculate data when solving problems, for example sorting numerical and categorical data in ascending or descending order and automating simple arithmetic calculations using nearby cells and summing cell ranges in spreadsheet …

Elaboration (2) ACTDIP029

using diagrams to describe key decisions, for example creating flowcharts using digital systems to describe a set of computational instructions

Elaboration (2) ACTDIP041

considering different algorithms and selecting the most appropriate based on the type of problem, for example choosing appropriate algorithms for particular problems

Elaboration ACTDIP003

collecting, and sorting data through play, for example collecting data about favourite toys and sorting them into categories such as toys they like or dislike

Elaboration (2) ACTDIK008

recognising representations of different types of data such as waves for sound

Elaboration (5) ACTDIK015

representing the state of an object in a game as active or inactive using the respective binary values of 1 or 0

Elaboration (2) ACTDIP016

recognising the difference between numerical, text and date formats in spreadsheets

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 ACTDIK002

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
