Lesson details

Key learning points

  1. In this lesson, we will use selection to control the outcomes in an interactive quiz. We will outline the requirements of the task and use an algorithm to show how we can use selection. To do this, we will design a storyboard to identify the questions asked and the outcomes for both correct and incorrect answers.
