An Introduction to Modelling

In this unit pupils learn that a computer can be used to represent real or fantasy situations. They understand that the representation is not an exact replica of the original. They discuss the main differences and similarities between a representation and the original. They create their own representations of real or fantasy situations. Pupils should be able to apply what they have learnt in this unit when exploring adventure programs or simulations.

The Boat : MyWorld file (36.1k)
This is the first of three My World files that represent the real world as a model. Pupils listen to a story, and recreate a boat, based on the information that they heard when the story was read.
The Island : MyWorld file (13.8k)
In this second lesson, pupils draw a map to show the location of the hidden treasure. An X marks the spot.
Treasure  Chest  : MyWorld file (59.6k)
In the third lesson, pupils sort out the treasure into those items that are valuable, and those that are not. What is valuabe in one situation, is not necessarily valuable in another.

There are two versions of the custom files, one for Dazzle and one for Dazzle Plus.
