Unit Hardware and software

Year level: F-2 Topic: Digital Systems Time: 5 hours

A computer is a common digital system. A tablet device, laptop and smartphone are also digital systems. At the F-2 level, students develop understandings of digital systems (hardware and software) when they use some key functions to undertake authentic curriculum tasks. A modelled approach supports students to understand how to match familiar forms of software and hardware with their purpose. Students can use materials such as modelling clay or boxes to construct/ build their own digital systems such as a desktop computer, tablet device, laptop or smartphone.
