| Subject | Computing | Week | 13 |
| Duration | 60 minutes | Form | SHS 1 |
| Strand | COMPUTATIONAL THINKING (PROGRAMMING LOGIC) | Sub-Strand | WEB TECHNOLOGIES |
| Learning Outcome(s) | 1.2.3.LO.1 - Explain the basic principles of web design and identify the modern technologies used in web design | ||
| Content Standard | 1.2.3.CS.1 | ||
| Learning Indicator(s) | 1.2.3.LI.1 - Explain the basic principles of web design and identify the modern technologies used in web design | ||
| Lesson Focus | Explain the basic principles of web design and identify the modern technologies used in web design | ||
| Previous Knowledge | Learners recall related ideas, vocabulary or experiences from earlier lessons and everyday contexts. | ||
| Lesson Objective(s) | Describe the key idea in: Explain the basic principles of web design and identify the modern technologies used in web design Apply the idea through guided and independent learning activities. Demonstrate understanding through oral responses, written work or practical performance. | ||
| Essential Question(s) | What computing concept, system, algorithm or technology is central to Explain the basic principles of web design and identify the modern technologies used in web design? How can we model, test or build the concept using hardware, software, code, diagrams or simulation? How can this knowledge be applied to solve a new real-life computing problem? | ||
| Pedagogical Strategies | Problem-Based Learning Collaborative Learning Pair Programming/Peer Review where appropriate Demonstration and Guided Practice Project-Based Learning Digital/Simulation-Based Learning Computational Thinking Debugging/Test-Driven Practice | ||
| Teaching & Learning Resources | Computer(s) where available Projector/TV where available Computing textbook/reference materials Whiteboard/markers Learners' notebooks Web browser Code editor Sample webpages/database files where relevant | ||
| Key Notes on Differentiation | |||
| Content | Use labelled diagrams, step-by-step worked examples, starter code, partially completed flowcharts or guided configuration sheets for learners who need support. Extend advanced learners with optimisation, debugging, system-design trade-offs, additional features or more complex test cases. | ||
| Process | Use mixed-ability grouping and pair work, rotating roles such as driver, navigator, tester, documenter or presenter. Where devices or internet access are limited, use offline simulators, printed code/diagrams, unplugged activities and shared-device rotations without changing the learning objective. | ||
| Product | Allow appropriate evidence such as annotated diagrams, algorithms, pseudocode, code, app screens, webpages, network designs, troubleshooting reports or presentations. Assess correctness, computational reasoning, functionality, testing/debugging, documentation, responsible digital practice and ability to justify design decisions. | ||
| Success Criteria | Learners use correct subject vocabulary. Learners complete the main task with reasonable accuracy. Learners explain or demonstrate how the concept applies in a new situation. | ||
| Homework | Complete a short application task connected to the week's learning indicator. | ||
| Lesson Activities | |||
| Stage | Teacher Activity | Learner Activity | Assessment / DoK |
| Starter10 minutes | Show a simple digital example involving the basic principles of web design and identify the modern technologies used in web design and ask learners to predict what is happening. | Share prior knowledge, listen to peers and record the lesson question in their notebooks. | Not provided. |
| Activity 115 minutes | Demonstrate the basic principles of web design and identify the modern technologies used in web design using a board sketch, device setting, code snippet, data table or simulation. | Observe the demonstration, identify the key parts and explain their functions. | Ask learners to define the key term and identify it in the demonstration. |
| Activity 220 minutes | Guide learners through a hands-on task where they apply the basic principles of web design and identify the modern technologies used in web design and record the result. | Complete the practical task, test the result and note any errors or fixes. | Check the task output for correct procedure, testing and explanation. |
| Activity 310 minutes | Present a different digital scenario and ask learners to use the basic principles of web design and identify the modern technologies used in web design to solve or explain the result. | Apply the idea to the new scenario and present the result or explanation. | Use a short exit task requiring learners to apply the idea in another digital context. |
| Lesson Closure | Summarise the basic principles of web design and identify the modern technologies used in web design and correct one common misconception using learner examples. State one thing learned and complete the exit response. | ||
