| Duration | 60 minutes | Form | SHS 2 |
| Strand | Robot Design Methodologies | Sub-Strand | Digital and Analogue System Design |
| Learning Outcome(s) | 2.2.1.LO.1 - Use boolean algebra to define automation solutions and apply Karnaugh Maps to simplify and optimise boolean-defined combinational digital systems 2.2.1.LO.2 - Build and test basic combinational circuits on printed circuit boards | ||
| Content Standard | 2.2.1.CS.1 2.2.1.CS.2 | ||
| Learning Indicator(s) | 2.2.1.LI.1 - Build and test basic combinational circuits on printed circuit boards | ||
| Lesson Focus | Build and test basic combinational circuits on printed circuit boards | ||
| Previous Knowledge | Learners recall related ideas, vocabulary or experiences from earlier lessons and everyday contexts. | ||
| Lesson Objective(s) | Describe the key idea in: Build and test basic combinational circuits on printed circuit boards Apply the idea through guided and independent learning activities. Demonstrate understanding through oral responses, written work or practical performance. | ||
| Essential Question(s) | What problem or function must the robotic system address? How do the components, control logic, design choices or program work together? How can testing evidence be used to improve the robot or solution? | ||
| Pedagogical Strategies | Design Thinking Project-Based Learning Hands-on Construction Programming/Simulation Collaborative Problem Solving Testing and Iteration | ||
| Teaching & Learning Resources | Robotics kit/components where available Microcontroller/computer and programming environment where available Sensors and actuators Design materials and basic safe tools Circuit/design diagrams Simulation/ICT resources Learners' notebooks | ||
| Key Notes on Differentiation | |||
| Content | Provide vocabulary, visuals, models, source prompts, worked examples or task cards as appropriate. Extend ready learners with deeper research, design, evaluation, leadership or independent application. | ||
| Process | Move from modelling/source exploration to guided collaboration and independent application. Use inclusive mixed-ability groupings, equitable roles and appropriate scaffolds while retaining individual evidence of learning. | ||
| Product | Allow curriculum-appropriate evidence such as oral/written responses, dialogues, maps, source analyses, designs, programs, demonstrations, presentations, portfolios or reflections. Assess understanding, application, reasoning/communication, accuracy and reflection appropriate to the subject. | ||
| Success Criteria | Learners use correct subject vocabulary. Learners complete the main task with reasonable accuracy. Learners explain or demonstrate how the concept applies in a new situation. | ||
| Homework | Complete a short application task connected to the week's learning indicator. | ||
| Lesson Activities | |||
| Stage | Teacher Activity | Learner Activity | Assessment / DoK |
| Starter10 minutes | Show a simple digital example involving build and test basic combinational circuits on printed circuit boards and ask learners to predict what is happening. | Share prior knowledge, listen to peers and record the lesson question in their notebooks. | Not provided. |
| Activity 115 minutes | Demonstrate build and test basic combinational circuits on printed circuit boards using a board sketch, device setting, code snippet, data table or simulation. | Observe the demonstration, identify the key parts and explain their functions. | Ask learners to define the key term and identify it in the demonstration. |
| Activity 220 minutes | Guide learners through a hands-on task where they apply build and test basic combinational circuits on printed circuit boards and record the result. | Complete the practical task, test the result and note any errors or fixes. | Check the task output for correct procedure, testing and explanation. |
| Activity 310 minutes | Present a different digital scenario and ask learners to use build and test basic combinational circuits on printed circuit boards to solve or explain the result. | Apply the idea to the new scenario and present the result or explanation. | Use a short exit task requiring learners to apply the idea in another digital context. |
| Lesson Closure | Summarise build and test basic combinational circuits on printed circuit boards and correct one common misconception using learner examples. State one thing learned and complete the exit response. | ||
