The same idea, year by year

Where AC9TDI6P09 comes from and where it goes, for a student working below or above Years 5 and 6.

  1. Years 3 and 4AC9TDI4P01define problems with given design criteria and by co-creating user stories
  2. Years 3 and 4AC9TDI4P02follow and describe algorithms involving sequencing, comparison operators (branching) and iteration
  3. Years 3 and 4AC9TDI4P03generate, communicate and compare designs
  4. Years 3 and 4AC9TDI4P04implement simple algorithms as visual programs involving control structures and input
  5. Years 3 and 4AC9TDI4P05discuss how existing and student solutions satisfy the design criteria and user stories
  6. Years 3 and 4AC9TDI4P06use the core features of common digital tools to create, locate and communicate content, following agreed conventions
  7. Years 3 and 4AC9TDI4P07use the core features of common digital tools to share content, plan tasks, and collaborate, following agreed behaviours, supported by trusted adults
  8. Years 3 and 4AC9TDI4P08access their school account using a memorised password and explain why it should be easy to remember, but hard for others to guess
  9. Years 3 and 4AC9TDI4P09identify what personal data is stored and shared in their online accounts and discuss any associated risks
  10. Years 7 and 8AC9TDI8P01acquire, store and validate data from a range of sources using software, including spreadsheets and databases
  11. Years 7 and 8AC9TDI8P02analyse and visualise data using a range of software, including spreadsheets and databases, to draw conclusions and make predictions by identifying trends
  12. Years 7 and 8AC9TDI8P03model and query the attributes of objects and events using structured data
  13. Years 7 and 8AC9TDI8P04define and decompose real-world problems with design criteria and by creating user stories
  14. Years 7 and 8AC9TDI8P05design algorithms involving nested control structures and represent them using flowcharts and pseudocode
  15. Years 7 and 8AC9TDI8P06trace algorithms to predict output for a given input and to identify errors
  16. Years 7 and 8AC9TDI8P07design the user experience of a digital system
  17. Years 7 and 8AC9TDI8P08generate, modify, communicate and evaluate alternative designs
  18. Years 7 and 8AC9TDI8P09implement, modify and debug programs involving control structures and functions in a general-purpose programming language
  19. Years 7 and 8AC9TDI8P10evaluate existing and student solutions against the design criteria, user stories and possible future impact
  20. Years 7 and 8AC9TDI8P11select and use a range of digital tools efficiently, including unfamiliar features, to create, locate and communicate content, consistently applying common conventions
  21. Years 7 and 8AC9TDI8P12select and use a range of digital tools efficiently and responsibly to share content online, and plan and manage individual and collaborative agile projects
  22. Years 7 and 8AC9TDI8P13explain how multi-factor authentication protects an account when the password is compromised and identify phishing and other cyber security threats
  23. Years 7 and 8AC9TDI8P14investigate and manage the digital footprint existing systems and student solutions collect and assess if the data is essential to their purpose
