Learning goals

Certified by Education Alliance Finland

The supported learning goals are identified by mapping the product against the selected reference curriculum and soft skills definitions most relevant for the 21st century.

• Practising to understand visual concepts and shapes and observe their qualities
• Describe choices made during program development using code comments, presentations, and demonstrations.
• Test and debug (identify and fix errors) a program or algorithm to ensure it runs as intended.
• Decompose (break down) problems into smaller, manageable subproblems to facilitate the program development process.
• Create programs that include sequences, events, loops, and conditionals.
• Create programs that use variables to store and modify data.
• Compare and refine multiple algorithms for the same task and determine which is the most appropriate.
• Decompose (break down) the steps needed to solve a problem into a precise sequence of instructions.
• Develop programs with sequences and simple loops, to express ideas or address a problem.
• Debug (identify and fix) errors in an algorithm or program that includes sequences and simple loops.
Develop plans that describe a program’s sequence of events, goals, and expected outcomes.
Use two or more programming languages, at least one of which is textual, to solve a variety of computational problems.
Understand simple Boolean logic and some of its uses in circuits and programming.
Design and develop modular programs that use procedures or functions.
Use sequence, selection, and repetition in programs; work with variables and various forms of input and output.
Use logical reasoning to explain how some simple algorithms work and to detect and correct errors in algorithms and programs.
Design, write and debug programs that accomplish specific goals, including controlling or simulating physical systems; solve problems by decomposing them into smaller parts.
