The Computing Progression Pathways suggests that at the orange level, on the theme of programming & development, a student should demonstrate that he/she:
- Creates programs that implement algorithms to achieve given goals. (Algorithmic Thinking)
- Declares and assigns variables. (Abstraction)
- Uses post-tested loop e.g. ‘until’, and a sequence of selection statements in programs, including an if, then and else statement. (Algorithmic Thinking)
The following link to cs4fn articles that illustrate Programming & Development – Orange Level.
- Computer programs look just like a series of rules to control the way cash is moved around.
