Context of the Standard |
Computing systems might not work as expected because of hardware or software problems. Clearly describing a problem is the first step toward finding a solution. In kindergarten, students are expected to clearly describe a problem in the computing system using developmentally appropriate language. Examples include, “The computer won’t turn on,” “The pointer on the screen won’t move,” or “I lost the web page.” Students are not expected to diagnose or troubleshoot a problem with a computing system in Kindergarten. |
