Elaboration (1) ACTDIP018

applying the principles and elements of design to a set of requirements in order to produce a user interface for a system that addresses an identified need, for example to emphasise or highlight an area of the screen to draw the viewer’s attention to …

Elaboration (1) ACTDIK007

using specific peripheral devices to capture different types of data, for example using a digital microscope to capture images of living and non-living things

Elaboration (4) ACTDIK024

converting between decimal and 8-bit (1 byte) unsigned binary, covering whole numbers typically used for characters and RGB, for example 65 in decimal is 01000001 in 8-bit binary

Elaboration (1) ACTDIP038

investigating different types of functional requirements for solutions, for example increasing the speed of processing, calculating new results, improving the quality of reports

Elaboration (1) ACTDIK015

explaining that binary represents numbers using 1s and 0s and these represent the on and off electrical states respectively in hardware and robotics

Elaboration (1) ACTDIP012

imagining and considering alternative uses and opportunities for information systems used in the classroom, for example visiting a virtual museum and being able to feel the texture of historical Asian objects or to view Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander …

Elaboration (2) ACTDIK015

recognising that the numbers 0, 1, 2 and 3 could be represented by the patterns of two binary digits of 00, 01, 10 and 11

Elaboration (2) ACTDIP010

experimenting with different ways of describing a set of instructions, for example writing two versions of the same simple set of instructions for a programmable robotic device

Elaboration (1) ACTDIP017

investigating characteristics of user interfaces that are common for particular types of problems, for example, touch screens – many people respond more intuitively than when using a keyboard or stylus; and the consistent placement of symbols helps with …

Elaboration (1) ACTDIP019

following, modifying and describing the design of a game involving simple algorithms represented diagrammatically or in English, for example creating a flowchart with software that uses symbols to show decisions, processes and inputs and outputs

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 (1) ACTDIP030

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

Elaboration (1) ACTDIP037

summarising data using advanced filtering and grouping techniques, for example pivot tables in spreadsheets and aggregation functions in databases

Elaboration (1) ACTDIP041

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

Elaboration (1) ACTDIP044

developing an evolutionary prototype iteratively and incrementally, for example regularly revising features of an application in response to user feedback and development decisions

Elaboration (1) ACTDIP004

writing and entering a simple set of instructions jointly to sequence events and instructions, for example scanning personal photographs and collating and ordering significant personal events or milestones and describing the steps involved in the pro …

Elaboration ACTDIP038

developing a preliminary specification for an opportunity or a need that typically contains a problem statement, a set of solution needs expressed as functional and non-functional requirements, any assumptions or constraints to be considered and the scope …

Elaboration (1) ACTDIP042

investigating techniques used by people and organisations to shape how information systems are used, for example refusing to use innovations, using social media to advocate behaviours, purchasing devices, withdrawing previous processes that can now only …

Elaboration (1) ACTDIK008

using a table to reorganise information that includes sentences, and/or words, and/or numbers and/or images

Elaboration (1) ACTDIP020

planning and implementing a solution using a visual programming language, for example designing and creating a simple computer game involving decisions and repetitions, suitable for younger children, that requires user input to make selections, taking …
