- Q1What is the purpose of using 'if' statements in block-based JavaScript coding?To create loopsTo display messagesTo make decisions based on conditionsTo define functions30s
- Q2In App Lab, what does the 'onEvent' block allow users to do?Style textDraw shapesCreate interactive elementsImport images30s
- Q3What does the 'setText' block do in block-based JavaScript coding?Changes the color of an elementMoves an element on the screenChanges the text of an elementPlays a sound effect30s
- Q4What is decomposition in computational thinking?Ignoring problems altogetherBreaking a complex problem into smaller, more manageable partsSolving a problem without breaking it downCombining multiple problems into one big issue30s
- Q5How does decomposition help in problem-solving?It makes the problem more complex and harder to solveIt only focuses on one small aspect of the problemIt is not a helpful problem-solving strategyIt allows you to tackle each smaller part separately and then combine solutions to solve the larger problem.30s
- Q6Why is it important for success criteria to be measurable?Measurement is unnecessary for setting goals.Measurable criteria allow progress to be tracked and evaluated.Unmeasurable criteria make goals more achievable.Measurable criteria stops you reaching your goal.30s
- Q7Why is it important for success criteria to be specific?General criteria leave are hard to interpret.Specific criteria make goals more challenging.Specific criteria limit creativity.Specific criteria help clarify what needs to be achieved.30s
- Q8What is the purpose of the Onevent code block in App Lab?To create arraysTo comment out codeTo store variablesTo execute code when a specific event occurs30s
- Q9How does the Onevent code block in App Lab differ from regular code blocks?It is triggered by specific events, rather than running continuouslyIt can be used for mathematical calculationsIt is not visible in the code editorIt can only contain text30s
- Q10When using the Onevent code block in App Lab, what is an example of an event that can trigger the code execution?Screen colorFont sizeText alignmentButton click30s
- Q11What happens if the delay specified in the setTimeout() function is set to 0?The code inside the setTimeout() function will never be executedThe code will wait indefinitely before executingAn error will occur due to an invalid delay valueThe code inside the setTimeout() function will be executed immediately after the current code block30s
- Q12What is the purpose of using SetTimeout code block in App Lab?To prevent errors from occurring in the programTo introduce a delay in executing code to control the flow of the programTo speed up the execution of code for better performanceTo display messages to the user immediately30s
- Q13What is the syntax for using the setTimeout() function to delay the execution of a code block for 3 seconds in App Lab?setTimeout(function(){ codeBlockHere }, 3);setTimeout(3, function(){ codeBlockHere });setTimeout(3000, function(){ codeBlockHere });setTimeout(function(){ codeBlockHere }, 3000);30s
- Q14How is the condition in an 'if' block evaluated in App Lab?It is evaluated as a stringIt is evaluated as a numberIt is not evaluatedIt is evaluated as either true or false30s
- Q15What is the purpose of the 'else if' block in App Lab?To repeat a set of instructionsTo provide additional conditions to check if the initial 'if' condition is falseTo end the programTo execute the same code as the 'else' block30s
