Learning Objectives

Indicator: B9.1.2.1.2 - Propose solutions to the problems identified

By the end of the lesson, learners can:

  2. Justify, with reasons, why a particular technological solution is suitable for a specific community problem.
  3. Present at least one proposed technological solution to the class, speaking clearly and explaining how it works.
  4. Combine information from multiple sources (class discussion, personal observation, and prior lessons) to propose a solution that fits the community’s needs and resources.
  5. Compare at least two possible technological solutions for the same problem and select the more practical one, giving reasons for the choice.

Source document note

The official curriculum document has a fault in this entry, so the curriculum text above is transcribed exactly as printed:

  • sub strand name - printed 'INTHE' with no space. The JHS document never prints the spaced form, but NaCCA's own primary Computing curriculum names the same sub-strand 'TECHNOLOGY IN THE COMMUNITY' (b4/b5/b6-computing.csv). sub_strand_name becomes the lesson topic a teacher sees, so the missing space is closed.
