Students can sign up for a free account. Notes are supplied with Power Point slides and each lesson is assessed individually. Medium term plan highlight how this scheme of work matches requirements of the new curriculum for computing. This unit will help prepare and support your students at KS3 to develop their knowledge and understanding and prepare for computer science at KS4. Lesson objectives are clearly explained, and non specialist should be able to use power point to deliver lesson comfortably. Lesson objective levels are linked with new curriculum levels. Keywords are reinforced each lesson. Students will enjoy coding and learn fundamental principles as they work their way through lessons. Although their are 6 lessons, depending on ability, you may need additional time. Also a benefit to allow students a few extra lessons to explore and demonstrate coding principles independently. Algorithms, Coding, Key stage 3, scratch, computational thinking, sequence, selection, iteration, variable, syntax,

This is an excellent resource to support knowledge required in OCR computer science J277 specification. How to use sub programs (functions and procedures) to produce structured code. This resource can be delivered from a non specialist and answers to solutions are available on request. Students must be encouraged to take their time and think through problems before showing solutions. Students must also reflect on their code development by answering/ discussing log questions.

Build students ability to make independent progress and think computationally with a range of programming skills using scratch. Students will learn vital keywords required as fundamental building block for computer science GCSE. Each exercise is independent of each other. Challenges range from simple to difficult and students are encouraged to consider and compare alternative solutions. Solutions for each challenge is provided, easy to follow and understand even for a non specialist teacher. This series of exercises is targeted at KS3 students, although KS4 students will also benefit from it as a revision tool for GCSE computer science. It is strongly advised that these exercises are used after students are taught fundamental skills from algorithms in scratch series.

Kodu is a friendly graphical programming language where students can build their own world and program objects within. This series of lesson uses kodu to introduce computer science terminology such as algorithm and variables to develop computational thinking skills.

Undertaking a non examined assessment is an overwhelming task for both students and teachers. Providing the right type of support in terms of structure, approach and feedback, whilst adhearing to examining board rules and regulations is key. This PowerPoint provides a techer/ student discussion and walkthrough of a problem, to a possible solution. It also provides a structure for students to present their solution in an easy to mark format. Analysis, design, development and evaluation is covered. There is plenty emphasis on computational thinking and decomposing the problem to a managable size.

An introduction to algorithms using a flowchart with sequence, selection and iteration. The worksheet provided enables students to slow down their thinking to focus on each instruction in the algorithm until the last instruction is executed and the program ends.

Part of a 7 series lesson course Introducing KS2 and KS3 students to algorithms using scratch. Power points with notes section, and editable resources for flexibility. Assessment Power Point must be macro enabled from options.

Testing is one of the most important processes when working on the computer science GCSE A453 project. Without testing a new system (project) thoroughly students may loose vital marks. This Power Point demonstrates how complex and difficult it is to test every possible outcome and teaches students to understand even the most rigorous of testing may not catch every error in the program. There are example case studies of situations where new computer systems or software upgrades have caused major problems because they have not been tested properly. Students/Testers are encouraged actively try to break the system, pushing it to extremes to test its strength and resilience. Students will also learn to write and demonstrate use of test plan.
