NEEV ACADEMY - DP TERM OUTLINE

Term: Two
Class, Subject and Level: Grade 11, Computer Science (SL)
Teacher: Alankar Pandit
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Prerequisites if any:
● Basics of Computer Fundamentals
● Programming fundamentals (Flowchart / Algorithm + basics of programming)

Specific term goals:

Specific Term Goals: The content delivered this term will enable students to understand and apply following concepts:
● Outline the architecture of the central processing unit
● Programming fundamentals (Algorithm / Pseudo code)
● Java Programming
● Understand Object Oriented Programming (OOP) and its applications in real life scenarios

Possible ToK Connections:

Computational thinking includes: procedure, logic, pre-planning (thinking ahead), concurrency, abstraction and recursion.
● To what extent are these ways of thinking distinct?
● To what extent can knowledge in different areas (mathematics, ethics, and so on) be analyzed in these ways?
● To what extent does computational thinking challenge conventional concepts of reasoning?
Computer Organization:
● There is no such thing as persistent storage.
● If there are no consequences of data loss, why is it stored?
● Does binary represent an example of a lingua franca?
● Reason as a way of knowing.
