General Outcome C6
Students will use technology to investigate and/or solve problems.

Specific Outcomes

Division 1
1.1 identify a problem within a defined context
1.2 use technology to organize and display data in a problem-solving context
1.3 use technology to support and present conclusions
 
Division 2
2.1 select and use technology to assist in problem solving
2.2 use data gathered from a variety of electronic sources to address identified problems
2.3 use graphic organizers, such as mind mapping/webbing, flow charting and outlining, to present connections between ideas and information in a problem-solving environment
2.4 solve problems, using numerical operations and such tools as calculators and spreadsheets
2.5 solve problems requiring the sorting, organizing, classifying and extending of data, using such tools as calculators, spreadsheets, databases or hypertext technology
2.6 solve issue-related problems, using such communication tools as a word processor or email to involve others in the process
2.7 generate alternative solutions to problems by using technology to facilitate the process
 
Division 3
3.1 articulate clearly a plan of action to use technology to solve a problem
3.2 identify the appropriate materials and tools to use in order to accomplish a plan of action
3.3 evaluate choices and the progress in problem solving, then redefine the plan of action as appropriate
3.4 pose and test solutions to problems by using computer applications, such as computer-assisted design or simulation/modelling software
3.5 create a simulation or a model by using technology that permits the making of inferences
 
Division 4
4.1 investigate and solve problems of prediction, calculation and inference
4.2 investigate and solve problems of organization and manipulation of information
4.3 manipulate data by using charting and graphing technologies in order to test inferences and probabilities
4.4 generate new understandings of problematic situations by using some form of technology to facilitate the process
4.5 evaluate the appropriateness of the technology used to investigate or solve a problem
