Content Area:
Computer Science
Grade Range:
9–12 Specialty
Concept:
Algorithms & Programming
Subconcept:
Program Development
Practice(s):
Collaborating Around Computing, Creating Computational Artifacts (2.2, 2.3, 5.2)
Standard:
Plan and develop programs for broad audiences using a specific software life cycle process.
Descriptive Statement:
Software development processes are used to help manage the design, development, and product/project management of a software solution. Various types of processes have been developed over time to meet changing needs in the software landscape. The systems development life cycle (SDLC), also referred to as the application development life cycle, is a term used in systems engineering, information systems, and software engineering to describe a process for planning, creating, testing, and deploying an information system. Other examples of common processes could include agile, spiral, or waterfall. Students develop a program following a specific software life cycle process, with proper scaffolding from the teacher. For example, students could work in teams on a common project using the agile development process, which is based on breaking product development work into small increments. Alternatively, students could be guided in implementing sprints to focus work on daily standup meetings or scrums to support efficient communication.
