Learning Outcomes:

1. Create a simple strong password following class rules and record it in a secure place if allowed.

2. Keep passwords private by refusing to share and explaining why it is important.

3. Ask an adult before downloading or installing any software or files.

4. Recognize pop-ups or suspicious links and notify the teacher instead of clicking.

5. Handle devices with two hands, keep liquids away, and carry laptops closed.

6. Explain one classroom digital safety rule to a peer and model it during work time.

Learning Outcomes:

1. Navigate to a specified folder using the file manager’s sidebar or breadcrumbs.

2. Open an existing file from the correct folder and close it after viewing.

3. Save a new file into a named folder using Save As with a meaningful filename.

4. Rename a file using the file manager and verify the new name appears.

5. Create a new folder and move a file into it by dragging or using a menu.

6. Capture a screenshot of the folder showing files with correct names as evidence.

Learning Targets:

1. Convert decimal numbers from 0 to 31 into 5-bit binary using place values or repeated division.

2. Translate 5-bit binary numbers into decimal by summing powers of two.

3. Verify conversions with a calculator or peer/teacher check and correct mistakes.

4. Represent numbers with unplugged tools (e.g., flip cards or LED drawings) to show bit positions.

Modules

Learning Targets:

1. Outline step-by-step solutions in plain language for small tasks (e.g., find the larger of two numbers).

2. Draw flowcharts using Start/End, Process, Input/Output, and Decision symbols on paper or a simple digital tool.

3. Write pseudocode using sequence, IF/THEN/ELSE, and simple loops (WHILE or REPEAT) for a chosen task.

4. Test the algorithm with at least three inputs and record the expected outputs.

Modules

Learning Targets:

1. Select and launch a beginner IDE or online compiler suitable for C++.

2. Create a new .cpp file and type a provided Hello, world! program with correct punctuation and braces.

3. Compile and run the program, interpreting basic compiler messages and correcting simple syntax errors (e.g., missing semicolons).

4. Save the project and capture console output as evidence of a successful run.

Modules

Learning Targets:

1. Declare and initialize int variables with clear, meaningful names and brief comments.

2. Read user input using std::cin and prompt with helpful messages; check simple constraints (e.g., positive numbers).

3. Display labeled results using std::cout with line breaks and spacing for readability.

4. Compute expressions using +, -, *, /, and % and store results in variables.

5. Trace variable values by printing them before and after an operation to show changes.

Modules

Learning Targets:

1. Use if and if-else to compare integers and choose actions for at least three different cases.

2. Build a simple text menu using else-if or switch to handle three options.

3. Construct a counted for loop to print numbers 1–10 and compute their sum.

4. Create a while loop that repeats until a user enters a sentinel value (e.g., 0 to stop).

5. Combine selection and repetition to complete a mini-task (e.g., a guessing game with up to five tries).

Modules

Learning Targets:

1. Diagnose compile-time errors using compiler messages and correct common syntax mistakes (semicolons, braces, typos).

2. Trace program flow by inserting temporary std::cout statements to inspect intermediate values.

3. Comment out code snippets to isolate a bug and retest behavior.

4. Validate final program behavior against test cases derived from the algorithm or flowchart.
