Intro
What is flowchart?
Effective visual tool especially for complex process with decisions
Where would a rounded rectangle (oval) go on a flowchart?
-Start/End
What part(s) of the flowchart is missing?
Start
Process
Input
Decision
End
Arrows
Arrows indicate which shape you are going to next
true, arrows do indicate the flow of the chart
What is the site we use for creating apps?
MIT App Inventor
When would you use rectangle on the chart?
Indicates a step in the process
What part(s) of the flowchart is missing?
Process->
Input 1->
Decision->
Start and End
There are more that 1 ending and start in a flow chart
no only one of each
What is the program we use for this class? (HINT: You access it through Clever.)
For decision making, what shape would you use?
You could also use a rhombus to indicate a question that results in a "yes" or "no" answer, as well as a possible "true" or "false" situation
What part(s) of the flowchart are missing?
Start->
Process->
Input->
Decision->
End
None
You have to start a whole new chart each time you answer one of your decisions "no"
No, you could use an arrow to point back up and you could redon it on the same flowchart
This class requires that students work in ______.
Pairs
What do the arrows indicate when used in a flowchart?
Arrows indicate the flow of the chart.
Arrows are drawn from the output of one block to the input of another.
Only one arrow can represent outputs.
Multiple arrows may represent inputs.
What part(s) of the flowchart is missing?
Start->
Input->
End
Process and Decision
There is a certain amount of shapes you could use
No, make your flowchart as long as you want
What is an algorithm?
set of rules to be followed in calculations or other problem-solving operations
What shape do you use to instruct on the direction of a process?
Arrow
What part(s) of the flowchart are missing?
