Progress Outcomes Covered
We’ve designed this project to cover a portion of the Digital Curriculum. Specifically looking at Progress Outcome 1 of Designing and Developing Digital Outcomes.
In authentic contexts and taking account of end- users, students participate in teacher-led activities to develop, manipulate, store, retrieve, and share digital content in order to meet technological challenges. In doing so, they identify digital devices and their purposes and understand that humans make them. They know how to use some applications, they can identify the inputs and outputs of a system, and they understand that digital devices store content, which can be retrieved later.

This project is the perfect way to introduce computer peripherals and have fun while doing so!
