Y4 – Environmental Data Collection


This term the Year 4 computing Topic is Keeping Informed.  They will Begin to understand the difference between data and information. They will use sensors (on iPads) and other tools as part of their investigations. They use branching and flat-file databases to enter, organise and search data, deriving information which they present in different forms.

For the first couple of weeks Year 4 have been collecting environmental data on sound and light from around the school.   They will enter this data into a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet, create graphs and perform simple analysis of this data, such as where in the school is the noisiest location!
