In this course you will study:
computational thinking; looking at a problem in terms of representing it on a computer, how can a problem be split down to smaller parts to make it more manageable, how can a problem be converted into an algorithm and then a program to solve the problem, how the data requirements for a problem can be found.
how to write computer programs using a high-level programming language
the components that make up a computer system and their function
the ways that computers can communicate through both wired and wireless connections, including networks and across the internet.
