Procedural Abstraction

[jakeneggs03]

The written response: •includes two program code segments:

• [ ] one showing a student-developed procedure with at least one parameter that has an effect on the functionality of the procedure.
• [ ] one showing where the student-developed procedures being called. •describes what the identified procedure does and how it contributes to the overall functionality of the program.

Requirements for program code segments: • The procedure must be student-developed but could be developed collaboratively with a partner. • If multiple procedures are included, use the first procedure to determine whether the point is earned. Do NOT award a point if any one or more of the following is true: • The code segment consisting of the procedure is not included in the written responses section • The procedure is a built-in or existing procedure or language structure, such as an event handler or main method, where the student only implements the body of the procedure rather than defining the name, a return type (if applicable), and parameters. • The written response describes what the procedure does independently without relating it to the overall function of the program.
