There are about 3 months and 15 days until school ends. How are you going to use that time to make sure you do your best?

 

Daily Note

Hello. 

I would like two or three of you to speak with our 11th graders about your experience with the IA. I forgot who the volunteers are. 

I would like to remind you of our upcoming mock exams

A few of you have expressed concern about programming and the upcoming exams. We will work through one problem: 

Problem set 1: 

NUMBERS = [10, 20, 30, 40, 50]

Expected output: 


Element at index 0: 10  
Element at index 1: 20  
Element at index 2: 30  
Element at index 3: 40  
Element at index 4: 50  

 

Problem set 2:

NUMBERS = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

Exepected output: 

[2, 4, 6, 8, 10]

 



One last unit for ALL of you (SL And HL) and then the HL have a bit more to learn. Please review all these standards. 

 

 

 

Statement of Inquiry

The big idea for today is Web science.

The essential questions for this topic are:

What is the web, really? How is the web made? How do we design and build web-based applications?

It takes time to explore and really understand a big idea. If you want to
learn more about web science (which is connected to today's daily note), please click here .

We are learning this because as a designers must understand scientific and technical innovation. Designers use systems, models, methods, and processes to solve problems.
