From Monday the 1st of March, S1 and S2 pupils will be starting a new unit in ICT – Computational Thinking. This unit is designed to be an introduction to the basic theory behind computer programming.<\/span><\/div>\n
The unit will use a mix of both written and practical exercises to familiarise pupils with basic concepts of computational thinking and programming. Pupils will learn how to write basic pseudocode, to allow them to design programs and solve problems using logical steps. Pupils will also touch on programming constructs such as loops and conditional statements to allow them to do this more efficiently.<\/span><\/div>\n
