GCSE Computer Science Knowledge Organiser Set - 8 Full Sheets - Excluding Python Specific Organisers

GCSE Computer Science Knowledge Organiser Set - 8 Full Sheets - Excluding Python Specific Organisers

(0)
NOTE: If you use Python, you may prefer to get my full collection of 10 knowledge organisers available as a bundle which works out cheaper per organiser. A collection of 8 full page knowledge organisers designed to summarise key modules of computer science to help students learn topics and revise. The topics cover: Computational Thinking Basic Programming Data Representation Computer System Networks Binary Calculations Ethical, Legal and Environmental Impact Each organiser includes key words, key skills and key knowledge in an easy to digest format. These took hours to make and refine, so save yourself the time for the equivalent of £1.69 a sheet! NOTE: If you do not use python for programming, I have uploaded all of the non python specific organisers in a separate file. This may be better for you if you don’t want to pay for resources that may not be as useful. Thanks Toby Watkins

GCSE Computer Science Revision Workbook - Includes 9 Knowledge Organisers and 9 Quizzes - BEST VALUE

(0)
This is a combined document including knowledge organisers, module quizzes and solutions for all of the main Computer Science content. I am using this as a “last-minute” revision pack for my year 11s, but could also be used throughout the year to aid learning and understanding. It is the best value way of purchasing all of my painstakingly organisers and quizzes. If you have already bought either my knowledge organisers or module quizzes and are looking for the other, please don’t buy this. Full packs of knowledge organisers and module quizzes are available separately as bundles. It has been designed to be printed as a stapled booklet, with students using the knowledge organisers to help them learn for the quizzes, before checking their work with the solutions. Alternatively, you could print select pages. These are available individually for a total of £36, so a saving of £8 by buying the full set here.

Skills Builder and Problem Solving Generator - Unlimited Randomly Generated Questions - 50+ topics

Skills Builder and Problem Solving Generator - Unlimited Randomly Generated Questions - 50+ topics

(0)
This is by far the best resource I have ever made. It is a full program, allowing randomly generated questions spanning over 50 different skills / topics. The key reason this exists was to combat the 20 minutes a day I spent producing Skills Grids to use as starters for my classes. The power of deliberate practice and spaced retrieval is massive, so using this program every lesson with my class to practice key skills is fundamental in helping my students succeed. With an increased focus on problem solving style questions in the GCSE exam, it is more important than ever to make sure our students have the skills mastered so that they can apply them with confidence. Save yourself hours and hours of time by using this for your daily review questions, or use it to produce quick worksheets or question sets for in your lessons. Features Randomly generated questions spanning 47 different skills, allowing for infinite questions. Difficulty toggle for the majority of topics, for example allowing more digits in multiplication questions, finding a short side instead of hypotenuse for Pythagoras and allowing squared terms in collecting like terms. An additional problem solving function, where there are 5 procedurally generated applied questions which span multiple topics and are very similar to the more in-depth GCSE exam questions. Integrated and easy to use timer, including pop-out function for separate use. Easy to use class profiles, allowing you to add as many classes as you teach and toggle which topics should be provided as options for each. For example, load your year 11 set 1 with simultaneous equations, sine rule and quadratic formula, and have your year 7 set 4 focus on basic operations, negative numbers and fractions. Random selection button, to have the program automatically select the required amount of topics from the current class profile. “1 Topic” button, to fill all areas with a single topic for focused skills practice. This automatically chooses the first sets to be easy mode and the later ones as hard mode. Great for review questions / do now quizzes at the start of lessons, question sets during main lesson, revision worksheets and much more. This program is being sold here as very much in early stages of development. I have used it daily for the last 3 years, but you may encounter some small issues such as some questions displaying incorrectly on some resolutions. You will receive the full program for this purchase as it is now, which has all of the functionality described above. You would also be supporting myself as a developer and maths teacher. Only for Windows PCs. Feel free to contact me for any questions or concerns at tobywatkins@gmail.com Thanks Toby Watkins
Computer Systems Target Topic Workbooklet - Mini Knowledge Organiser, Exam Questions + MS

Computer Systems Target Topic Workbooklet - Mini Knowledge Organiser, Exam Questions + MS

(0)
For the Computer System topic, the 2 identified target topics are: Memory and Storage The CPU Other topics available in alternative resource listings. Here is another painstakingly put together resource which I use for revision of key topics, but could also be used for an accessible homework task or even first teaching. For each of the key topics, I picked out the 2 main areas students find difficult. I then created a focused revision page (essentially a knowledge organiser for the target topic), along with a set of questions covering key facts and knowledge + exam style questions. I also included the answers and mark scheme where appropriate. I have done them in powerpoint format so that they can be displayed to the class, share with students digitally or print out as booklets (I tend to duplicate each slide and print 2 to a page to get A5 booklets, but A4 would also work and give more room for writing). The main purpose is to boost understanding of some of the most difficult topics with a well designed revision page and set of questions to consolidate. I will also be printing out all of the question pages separately and issuing nearer exam time to make sure everything has stuck. Hope this is a helpful resource and let me know if you have any questions or comments.
