Summing it all up

Lets look at the learning outcomes and decide which one best describes our current level of understanding :

Tick the one you feel is closest to your level

Learning Outcomes I need to learn how to represent algorithms using flowcharts, pseudo-code and use them to create program code

  • I have a basic understanding of how I can represent algorithms using flowcharts, pseudo-code and use them to create program code with a little help from my teacher
  • I can show my teacher that I can represent algorithms using flowcharts, pseudo-code and use them to create program code without their help.
  • I can represent algorithms using flowcharts, pseudo-code and use them to create program code independently and I can also explain it to others and can complete any extension tasks I am given.
