q2 · i? · design · r2

Conversation analysis of stage two group discussions among primary five students designing area calculation games. Transcripts show students proposing game rules such as 'Each item has 40 s' and heart-based chance systems, demonstrating algorithmic thinking and problem decomposition.

"After recalling the formulae of areas of different shapes, students articulated a problem's solution in well-defined rules and steps of the mobile app development platform."
