The purpose of this material is to present in an integrated way the basic knowledge in the key areas of Computer Science. Knowledge of mathematics and physics, particularly in electricity, equivalent to level 9 of the k12 curriculum is required. Tests are available in the area of Computer Systems, Networks and Internet and Small Basic Programming. The Data Structure and Computing Impacts modules are practical and have no tests.
The material presents a structured and interrelated view between all these fields in the creation of devices and programs related to computing. The area is extensive and complex. It may not be possible to study all subjects in the school year. So, the suggestion is to divide the class into 5 groups, each group specializing in one of the areas. Each group can then prepare a short lesson on their area and present a lesson to the remaining groups. Each area has some classes that must be studied in depth and other classes that serve as reference material when necessary.
The Computer Impacts chapter integrates Small Basic and some digital devices with Arduino. Thus, it is possible to have a global perspective of Computer Science and realize that several techniques, from hardware to software, are integrated into the computational devices that we use in our daily lives.
Much of this work is already contained in the Computer Systems One, Computer Networks One, Programming Small Basic and Computer Database SQLite applications. The Computing Impacts module is completely new. Anyone who wants to learn and experiment more with Arduino can use the Arduino Computer Science application.
