Hi<br>
<br>
Can someone please clarify this for me:<br>
In the Study Design in the Programming Practice description it says - "Students interpret given designs and create working modules using a programming language, undertaking the problem-solving activities of coding, testing and documenting (development stage)".<br>
<br>
In the Key Knowledge it says<br>
"methods of representing designs, including data dictionaries, object descriptions, mock-ups and pseudocode"<br>
<br>
Should we be giving the students data dictionaries, object descriptions and pseudocode or is it only mock-ups that we give them.<br>
<br>
Thanks for your help<br>
<br>
Lorraine Bignell<o:p></o:p></span></p>
