Curriculum KS4 Unit Lesson

In the final lesson of the algorithms unit, learners will complete a summative assessment that will test their understanding of searching and sorting algorithms, flowcharts, tracing, and computational thinking terms. The type of questions mainly consist of multiple choice and short answer questions to make marking easier. Learners will start the lesson by exploring a piece of code in Python before developing the function for linear search in the program provided, which contains subgoal labels written as comments in the code.
