What to Expect from CAPS Grade 7 Coding and Robotics
Grade 7 Coding and Robotics begins the Senior Phase with more sophisticated programming paradigms — introducing object-oriented programming and web development concepts alongside more advanced robotics work. EdSoft's adaptive module develops programming maturity progressively.
Object-Oriented Programming
Object-oriented programming is introduced formally in Grade 7 — learners define classes, create objects, and develop programs that model real-world entities using attributes and methods. Python's OOP features are explored in accessible, practical contexts.
Introduction to Web Technologies
HTML and CSS are introduced — learners create simple web pages and begin to understand how the web works from a technical perspective. The relationship between structure (HTML) and presentation (CSS) is explored.
Data and Databases
An introduction to data storage — file-based storage, and the concept of a database as a structured information system — is developed at a conceptual and practical level.
Robotics: Autonomous Systems
Senior Phase robotics develops autonomous robot behaviour — learners program robots to navigate environments using sensor feedback, developing more sophisticated control algorithms.
