Hello sumokids! (^^,)
VERY IMPORTANT Reminder from Moira:
Each student must bring a family picture for the family day tarpaulin. The picture should be an old picture (meaning, a family picture taken when we were younger or when we were babies). This is because the theme is "going back in time". This is needed on TUESDAY because they might work on the tarp on Wednesday.

Computer Notes...
Hi Sumo Kids,
I sent you powerpoints through email. The first is the computer powerpoint about flowcharts. Although I copy pasted it (pls see below), it is hard to understand because the powerpoint has shapes and symbols (since it is about flowcharting) and I cannot copy paste them here. Please just check your emails, ok? The other powerpoint I attached was my report a while ago on the culture of Japan so you can see the pictures and complete your notes about it.
So, there. Hope you will understand. Thank you so so much!
Alleana (",)
~*~FLOWCHART~*~
PROGRAM LOGIC FORMULATION
*What is a Flowchart?
Flowchart is considered as the most popular tool in logic formulation.
: it represents the pictorial solution of the problem.
: it is the basic tool of programming analysis.
:charts also aid in communication, provide a valuable documentation support and contribute to a more efficient coding and program maintenance and documentation.
*Two Types of Flowchart:
System Flowchart: shows the general transformation of inputs into its output form.
Program Flowchart: shows the detailed steps/procedure of the solution of the problem.
*Example of System Flowchart:
STD-FLE: is the INPUT file - Student File.
IBM-PC: Is the PROCESSor.
PRT-FLE: is the OUTPUT file - Print File (Document)
*Data Processing Cycle:
INPUT: machine-readable form.
PROCESS: operations performed on gathered data.
OUTPUT: human-readable form.
*Problem : Make a program that will compute for the sum of three numbers
*ALGORITHM
Given: three numbers (INPUT)
A, B, C
Required: sum of three numbers (OUTPUT)
S
Solution: Sum = 1st # + 2nd # + 3rd # (PROCESS)
S = A + B + C
***Program Flowcharting Symbols:
*Terminal : Denotes the beginning and end of an algorithm.
*Parallelogram: Input or output operations.
*Process Symbol: Rectangle
Two Forms To Represent a Process:
~Macroinstruction
Eg.Add A, B, C Giving S
~Assignment Statement
eg. S = A + B + C
*Decision Symbol: Must be answerable by YES or NO or TRUE or FALSE.
*Flowlines: Use to connect all the symbols.
*Arrowheads: Show direction; being used together with flowlines.
*Preparation Symbol: Hexagon
It is being used to denote a pre-process usually an initialization.
*Small pentagon: Off - Page Connector
***CONNECTORS
On-page - Shows continuation of the program on the same page
Off-page - Interconnects the parts of the program on separate pages
*RULES IN NAMING VARIABLES:
1. It must start with an alphabetic character or an underscore (_).
2. It can contain letters, numbers and an underscore (_) for space.
3. It should not exceed 127 characters.
4. It should not contain any special character and a space.
*General Notations in Flowcharting and Programming
Mathematical
+ addition
- subtraction
* multiplication
/ division
^ exponentiation
( )grouping
Relational
= equal to
< > not equal to
< less than
> greater than
<= less than or equal to
>= greater than or equal to
*Logical Operators
1. && :Logical AND
if (ACAD >= 90) && (CNDCT > = 87)
2. | | :Logical OR
if (CNDCT= = “BP”) | | (CNDCT = = “Bp)
3. ! :Logical NOT
if (CODE ! = ‘A’)
*Structured Programming has three control structures:
1. SEQUENCE
Input-Process-Output
2. SELECTION
Input-Condition-Process-Output
3. ITERATION
Input-Loop-Process-Output

READ CAREFULLY! [Journ homework]
READ CAREFULLY.
Writing Activities in Campus Journalism
I. NewsgatheringA. Identify a
STORY in SPCP that deserves to be reported. This may either be an event or an issue containing the necessary elements that interest your public (Examples: election of officers, leadership training, “Speak English” drive, interschool contests, Seniors’ preferred courses and schools, special programs, etc. ). You are encouraged to work on “non-traditional” stories such as a survey or evaluation results on the efficiency of a school project, the effectiveness of the school’s policy on waste segregation, etc. Observe. Be a nosy reporter. Attempt to do “simple”
investigative techniques. Make sure, however, that you observe
accuracy, fairness and balance. All claims must be substantiated by evidences.
B. Identify and enumerate the important
DETAILS/FACTS of the story. Write
only those that you intend to include in your report. Conduct interviews from the
right sources when necessary. Double-check facts because these will likewise be double-checked (by me).
C. Point out the
ANGLE that you intend to play up, and
briefly explain why. Remember that the angle is the “it” of the story:
1. that which makes the story interesting because it’s new or controversial; or
2. that which may have been ignored but is significant
D. Attach a paper trail or a documentation of the newsgathering activity. This may be the
original interview notes or a picture of the event covered or the actual interview.
II. In no more than 7 sentences, explain what the following statement means:
“I want stories to startle and engage me within the first few sentences, and in their middle to widen, deepen or sharpen my knowledge of human activity, and to end by giving me a sensation of completed statement”
---John Updike
Format of the Newsgathering Activity Report
Class Number, Surname, Given Name
Year and Room NumberI. Story (3 points) This part answers the question
What is the story about? Oops, you don’t need to write in sentence form. Simply give a general idea about your story.
II. Details (20 points)
This section answers the question
What are the significant details of the story that your readers NEED to know?”
Enumerate all the details in bulleted form.
II. Angle ( 7 points)
This section answers the question
What makes the story interesting to the readers?
Briefly explain why such an angle.
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES:1. Email all submissions at
rpvelardejr@yahoo.com NO LATER than August 7, 9:00 PM, Philippine time :=)
2. Except for the paper trail or documentation of the newsgathering report, all submissions must be emailed as
MS Word attachment (2 files—one for I and another for II) following this format of filename:
1. Surname_roomnumber_newsgathering
Example:
Velarde_2_newsgathering2. Surname_roomnumber_myviews
Example:
Velarde_2_myviews3. To be collected by the Academic Chair, the printed copies (on 8” X 11” copy paper) of the emailed submissions must be submitted no later than August 8, Wednesday. This shall include the documentation and paper trail.
