Flow-Logic - Computing Resources for Teachers helps teachers deliver KS3 computing curriculum, GCSE computer science, and wider secondary computing through visual flowchart models, algorithm design practice, and computational thinking activities that are easy to run in class.
Use this for full lessons, lesson starters, explicit modelling, independent practice, and assessment checkpoints.
Projects can be saved as .flow files locally or in Google Drive.
Built for secondary teachers and departments worldwide who need computing curriculum resources, computer science teaching resources, and practical support for KS3 computing curriculum, GCSE computer science, algorithm teaching, and computational thinking.
Students get access to an IP locked website where they can complete many different tasks when they are in school. Each model comes with up to 5 different tasks increasing in complexity. New models are still being added and if you have an idea for a model that we dont have, just get in touch and we will do what we can to get it built.
These sample tasks show the style of classroom challenge included with the Zebra Crossing model. Solution passwords are only available to teachers in the Teacher Admin Panel.
Students make the two beacons flash repeatedly using only output and delay blocks.
The beacons only flash while the crossing button is pressed, otherwise both beacons stay off.
During the day, the button starts the alternating beacons every 0.6 seconds. At night, both beacons stay on steadily with a 1.0-second loop.
In the day the crossing flashes every 0.4 seconds when pressed. At night it flashes every 1.2 seconds and stays off until needed.
Use a night locator light, then run faster or slower flashing when the button is pressed.
