Elaboration (1) ACTDIP025

acquiring data from a range of sources, for example people, websites, books, mobile phones, radiofrequency identification (RFID) and data repositories such as the Australian Bureau of Statistics datasets, and compiling these data into a digital forma …

Elaboration (2) ACTDIP025

checking authenticity of data, for example ensuring the source or author is a reliable individual or organisation

Elaboration (3) ACTDIP026

querying an existing database to extract data for analysis, for example devising multiple selection criteria or using simple structured query language (SQL) SELECT statements to select records and retrieve specified fields

Elaboration (3) ACTDIP027

starting from a simplified system, gradually increase complexity until a model of a real-world system is developed, and record the difficulties associated with each stage of implementation

Elaboration (1) ACTDIP029

checking the accuracy of an algorithm before it is implemented, for example desk checking it with test data to see if the instructions produce the expected results

Elaboration (2) ACTDIP029

using diagrams to describe key decisions, for example creating flowcharts using digital systems to describe a set of computational instructions

Elaboration (1) ACTDIP030

developing a digital game that manipulates models of real-world objects

Elaboration ACTDIP031

comparing student solutions with existing solutions that solve similar problems, for example identifying differences in the user interface of two adventure games and explaining how these differences affect the usability or appeal of the game

Elaboration (5) ACTDIP031

comparing cloud-based information systems to client-based information systems

Elaboration (2) ACTDIP032

discussing policies about the use of information systems in a range of settings, for example using mobile phones for learning and accessing social media websites at school

Elaboration ACTDIK035

explaining how simple compression schemes reduce the size of repetitive data, for example how run length encoding reduces the size of images

Elaboration (3) ACTDIK035

generating a layout or report in a database or applying a style sheet to a web page

Elaboration (4) ACTDIP038

using software such as graphic organisers to determine a fundamental cause of a problem or to represent related elements of a problem that need to be jointly addressed in the digital solution

Elaboration ACTDIP039

designing the user interface of a solution using story boards and mock-ups, for example mocking up the product design of an app for people with disability

Elaboration (3) ACTDIP039

designing documentation, branding, and marketing for a digital solution, for example a product demonstration screencast or ‘getting started’ user guide

Elaboration ACTDIP041

coding separate modules that perform discrete functions but collectively meet the needs of the solution

Elaboration (1) ACTDIP041

defining classes that represent the attributes and behaviour of objects in the real world or in a game

Elaboration (2) ACTDIP041

considering different algorithms and selecting the most appropriate based on the type of problem, for example choosing appropriate algorithms for particular problems

Elaboration (3) ACTDIP041

selecting different types of data structures such as an array, record and object to model structured data

Elaboration (2) ACTDIP043

creating an interactive web-based project that provides enterprising opportunities and complies with accessibility requirements, for example using fragments of a web language to create dynamic content that supports interactivity
