In this activity, learners will self-assess and plan how to extend their current knowledge of programmable systems.

These resources introduce what is meant by a program and programming commands. Activities include asking learners to create a set of instructions that will solve a problem, as well as building on understanding of programming commands and what they are used to do in a program. 

This activity is designed to introduce students to what is meant by a program. It asks students to create a set of instructions that will solve a problem...
