Module 3 Discussion - Learning Task Analysis

ID Project Description: After three hours of instruction, a group of 7th grade students will be able to design and program a single-level car driving game using Scratch programming software.

Learning Goal: Learners will be able to program digital assets with conditional statements by using Scratch programming to navigate a two-dimensional car safely through a defined course.

Type of Learning: Intellectual Skills (Procedural Knowledge)

Learning Objectives:

1. Learners can identify design pane and script pane.
2. Learners can use design tools to paint a sprite (car).
3. Learners can use design tools to illustrate a stage (backdrop).
4. By selecting appropriate control and motion scripts, learners can program a conditional statement.
5. Learners can extend understanding of programming to create four different scripts involving conditional statements.
6. Learners can determine appropriate degree of rotation in scripts for turning sprite.
7. Learners can program conditional statement to show a textual message when sprite goes off course.
8. Learners can program conditional statement to relocate sprite to a given point on a coordinate plane.
9. Learners can verbally communicate effectiveness of script design.
10. Given a sequence of scripts, learners can identify problems and apply problem-solving strategies to create a solution.
