When creating learning resources for young people, we want to teach computational thinking as well as making the projects fun and engaging.
To help us do this, we have put together a computational thinking framework, which
Learners will design, create, and test a mat for a floor robot. This will introduce the idea that design in programming not only includes code and algorithms, but also artefacts related to the project, such as artwork. Note: The designs in this lesson can be changed to suit a topic or theme that the class is learning about. The ideas included in the slides are examples.
Learning objectives To explain that programming projects can have code and artwork

In this lesson, learners will begin to explore the different tools that can be used in word processors to change the look of the text. Learners will use the Caps Lock key to add capital letters to their writing and will begin thinking about how to use this successfully. The learners will match simple descriptions with the key that they relate to. Finally, learners will begin exploring the different buttons available on the toolbar in more detail, and use these to change their own text.
