Years 5&6

Digital Technologies

Digital Systems

  • VCDTDS026: Examine the main components of common digital systems, and how such digital systems may connect together to form networks to transmit data.

Data and Information

  • VCDTDI027: Examine how whole numbers are used as the basis for representing all types of data in digital systems.

Creating Digital Solutions

  • VCDTCD030Define problems in terms of data and functional requirements, drawing on previously solved problems to identify similarities.

  • VCDTCD032Design, modify and follow simple algorithms represented diagrammatically and in English, involving sequences of steps, branching, and iteration.

  • VCDTCD033: Develop digital solutions as simple visual programs.

  • VCDTCD034Explain how student-developed solutions and existing information systems meet current and future community and sustainability needs.

Design and Technologies

Engineering Principles and Systems

  • VCDSTC034: Investigate how forces or electrical energy can control movement, sound or light in a designed product or system.

Science Understanding

Physical Sciences

  • VCSSU081: Energy from a variety of sources can be used to generate electricity; electric circuits enable this energy to be transferred to another place and then to be transformed into another form of energy.

Personal and Social Capability

Social Awareness and Management

  • VCPSCSO032: Identify the characteristics of an effective team and develop descriptions for particular roles including leadership, and describe both their own and their team’s performance when undertaking various roles.

  • VCPSCSO033: Describe the various causes of conflict and evaluate possible strategies to address conflict.
