A year 10 resource I created as part 1 of 3 lessons on Applications, Systems and Utilities. This lesson covers the outcomes and LOs below using identification, description and industry connected content.

Outcomes:

Learning Objectives:
• Pupils to gain understanding of the software used in game development through listing and teacher-led discussion.
• Pupils to distinguish between apps and applications through identification exercises, which also draw on literacy skills.
• Pupils to develop ability to identify examples of the three categories of software.
