Our Digital Tools and Data - Presentation
This ready-to-use, non-editable PowerPoint presentation delivers the full 5-lesson sequence for the Our Digital Tools and Data unit. Designed for Years 1–2 Technologies, it covers key concepts such as recognising digital systems, understanding how data can be represented using symbols, and using digital tools to communicate safely and solve problems. The presentation includes teacher prompts, student questions, and visual examples that support direct instruction and class discussion throughout the unit.
Learning goals
- We are learning to use the basic features of common digital tools to create, locate and communicate content.
- We are learning to use the basic features of common digital tools to share content and collaborate, guided by trusted adults.
- We are learning to access our school account with a recorded username and password.
- We are learning to discuss that some websites and apps store our personal data online.
- We are learning to identify and explore digital systems.
- We are learning to represent data as pictures, symbols, numbers and words.
- We are learning to investigate simple problems that can be solved with digital systems.
- We are learning to follow and describe algorithms.
- We are learning to discuss how existing digital systems satisfy needs.
- We are learning to recognise and explore digital systems.
- We are learning to recognise and explore patterns in data and represent data as pictures, symbols and diagrams.
- We are learning to collect, explore and sort data and use digital systems to present the data creatively.
- We are learning to explore how people safely use common information systems to meet information, communication and recreation needs.
- We are learning to follow, describe and represent a sequence of steps and decisions (algorithms) needed to solve simple problems.
- We are learning to create and organise ideas and information using information systems independently, with a known adult.
