Searching for parcels
In this resource students look at the application of linear and binary searches in the real world context of a delivery driver looking for parcels in a van. Students apply their understanding of a linear search to a series of questions before comparing a linear with a binary search to determine which would be better to use in this situation.
The activity includes:
- teacher notes
- adaptable presentation
- adaptable student activity sheet
- suggested solutions
Further education resources that link the world of logistics to suitable lessons and subjects in school can be found on the Generation Logistics Education Hub.
