Intro to CS — Unit 5 Mini Project: Program Planning & Debugging
This Unit 5 Mini Project gives students the opportunity to apply everything they learned in Unit 5 of an Intro to Computer Science course. Instead of writing real code, students focus on planning, logic, and debugging by analyzing and correcting flawed pseudocode. Designed as a capstone-style task, this mini project reinforces key programming concepts introduced throughout Lessons 5.1–5.4, including algorithms vs programs, syntax vs logic errors, pseudocode, and debugging logical errors.

Programming Jigsaw Puzzle Activity
Bring algorithms to life with this interactive, unplugged classroom activity! In this collaborative lesson, students work in groups to solve a physical puzzle — but before they start, they must write and follow their own pseudocode algorithm. As they work, they’ll experience firsthand how sequencing, selection, and iteration apply to problem-solving in computer science. Afterward, students reflect on their “debugging” process and connect their experience to real programming concepts. 🧠 St
