How Programming Helps Us in Daily Life and Work

Programming is how we tell computers what to do. We write special instructions called "code" to make computers do different tasks. For example, we can write code to create a game, a website, or an app. Programmers are people who write this code. They use programming languages like Python or Java to communicate with computers. Programming software helps us do our work better and faster. It can help us organize our tasks, find mistakes in our work, and even talk to other people online. Many jobs use programming to make their work easier. In the future, more and more people will learn programming to help them in their jobs.

Vocabulary Practice Challenge

Tech Talk Role-Play Objective: Use at least 4-5 vocabulary words in a role-play scenario. 1. Assign Roles: Each group will create a role-play based on a tech-related scenario. They should assign roles such as: o Project Manager o Developer 1 o Developer 2 o Designer o Tester. 2. Scenario Creation: Each group will come up with a scenario where they need to discuss or solve a tech-related problem. They must use at least 5 vocabulary words from the list studied in class.

Example:

Fixing the BugDM: We have a bug. DEV1: Where is it? DM: In the GUI. DEV2: Let’s use the debugger. DESIGNER: Can we fix it? DEV1: Yes, with JavaScript. TESTER: I will test it. DM: Great! Use Git for version control. DEV2: I will refactor the code. DESIGNER: The GUI looks good now. TESTER: No more bugs.

The indefinite article

1. A programmer writes code. 2. An algorithm solves problems. 3. A bug can break the code. 4. An open-source project is free. 5. A version control system tracks changes.

Basic Programming Terms

An algorithm is a set of rules to solve a problem. An API connects different software services. The compiler translates high-level code into machine code that computers understand. When there is a bug, it means there is a mistake in the code. The debugger is a tool that helps fix the bug. When there is an error, programmers must correct it. They use the IDE to write and test their code. Many developers use an open-source library to make projects easier. Sometimes, they add a new feature to make software more useful. The cloud computing service provides flexible resources for running programs. Version control is important because it tracks changes in code. A popular tool for this is Git. A GUI (Graphical User Interface) allows users to interact with software using icons. JavaScript is used to create interactive effects on websites. The refactoring process involves restructuring existing code without changing its external behavior.

Activity: "App Showcase"

Instructions: Imagine you are a team of software developers who have been asked to create an app to solve a specific problem. Your task is to brainstorm and design an app that helps people manage their time better. Discuss as a group and decide what features your app will have, who will use it, and how it will make their lives easier. After planning, prepare a short presentation to describe your app to the class, using simple sentences and vocabulary related to programming and software.

Situation: "Time Management for Different Lifestyles" Your team needs to create a unique time management app that caters to one of these specific lifestyles: 1.A college student balancing study, work, and social life. 2.A parent juggling family, work, and personal time. 3.A remote worker needing to manage work hours and personal projects. 4.A fitness enthusiast tracking workouts, meals, and sleep schedules. 5.A busy traveler organizing trips, meetings, and leisure activities. Each group can choose one of these scenarios or come up with their own. Think about what special features your app would need for that lifestyle and why it's better than other apps. Your presentation should explain how your app solves problems specific to that lifestyle.
