=Welcome to Grade 10/11 Computer Technology=

This Wiki is designed to be a shared resource for your Computer Technology course. Use it to share project information, computer knowledge, links, resources, and general discussion about computer technology and the projects that we will be working on during the year.

Join the discussion
The discussion area is a place we can use to share our ideas and opinions relating to computer technology. All students are expected to contribute to the discussions. Please keep the following guidelines in mind:
 * use the discussion area to discuss relevant technology topics. Use your favourite social network for "socializing".
 * contribute to the discussion in a meaningful and concise way. Support your opinions with facts and research.
 * respect other people's opinions, but don't be afraid to question them.
 * demonstrate and maintain a positive learning environment. Use proper terminology and grammar.

Ohm's Law Scratch assignment
Now that you have used Scratch to make a game, it's time to apply your knowledge to a circuit simulator. Create a Scratch project the simulates the operation of a series circuit containing three resistors. Allow the user to modify the applied potential and the resistance of each of the three series resistors. The simulator should calulate the total current, the potential drop across each load, and the total power consumption of the circuit.

Ohm's Law Scratch assignment - part II
Your previous Scratch assignment simulated the operation of a series circuit. Create a new Scratch project to simulate the operation of a parallel circuit containing at least two resistors. The user must be able to change the applied potential as well as the resistance of each resistor. The simulator should calculate the current flow through each load, the total current, and the total resistance of the circuit.
