Course Description

 

This course in computer technology is required of students in Mathayom 3. The primary focus in this year will be in several individual student projects, the first project is to design and create of a theme Park Ride. This is for a student chosen organization to a set specification. The computing systems life cycle is used to guide them to its completion. Software used for the creation of the simulated ride will be of the student’s choice. The second project is to encourage critical thinking to design and create an online survey – questionnaire. The data collected will be used to create graphical charts that can be presented to back up hypothesizes. The projects are strongly driven by practical work in the classroom and at home. The work is graded according to the level of detail of the planning and design criteria reached.

 

Course Objectives

 

1. To assist student in gaining a solid understanding of all the steps involved in the planning and creating of a computing project

2. To introduce students to the Systems Life Cycle, used for all computing projects to organize each step of the work.

3. To be able to explain the Identify, Analysis, Design, Implementation, Test and Evaluation stages of the Systems life Cycle

4. To assist student with programming skills and understand how code blocks work.

5. To provide students with the skill required to complete a project and produce the documents required to show each stage of their planning from the initial problem to a working model.

6. To understand how to design and create and online survey/questionnaire.

7. To explain how data is collected, validated and verified within an online survey form.

8. To distinguish between good data (usable) and bad data

9. To understand how good data collected can be used for, presenting graphically.

10. To understand that any hypothesizes can be proved with data collected
