Cyber Attack: A Code Breaking Workshop

Tablet Academy has created a Virtual experience focused on enabling students to achieve the following objectives within computing:
a) understand how instructions are stored and executed within a computer system; understand how data of various types (including text, sounds and pictures) can be represented and manipulated digitally, in the form of binary digits
b) undertake creative projects that involve selecting, using, and combining multiple applications, preferably across a range of devices, to achieve challenging goals, including collecting and analysing data and meeting the needs of known users.
c) understand a range of ways to use technology safely, respectfully, responsibly and securely, including protecting their online identity and privacy; recognise inappropriate content, contact and conduct and know how to report concerns.
d) develop their capability, creativity and knowledge in computer science, digital media and information technology.
e) develop and apply their analytic, problem-solving, design, and computational thinking skills.
f) understand how changes in technology affect safety, including new ways to protect their online privacy and identity, and how to identify and report a range of concerns.

Through this workshop it is hoped that students would be able to
a) select appropriate concepts, methods and techniques to apply to unfamiliar and nonroutine problems;
b) interpret their solution in the context of the given problem.
c) calculate the probability of independent and dependent combined events, including using tree diagrams and other representations, and know the underlying assumptions
d) make and test conjectures about patterns and relationships; look for proofs or counterexamples
e)begin to reason deductively in geometry, number and algebra, including using geometrical constructions
