Scratch - Secondary Perspective. Following on from practice learning game provided by teacher, students will now develop games in order to demonstrate programming skills. A good way of introducing terms that they will use when exploring Python later in the year. Iteration Selection Lists User input Output Broadcast (aka. function in Python)

Key Stage 3 Computer Science HTML & Dreamweaver Unit Systems Security Website Lesson 7 - Identifying Vulnerabilities & External Hyperlinks Practical: External Hyperlinks using HTML code Theory: Identifying vulnerabilities in computer networks

Key Stage 3 Computer Science HTML & Dreamweaver Unit Systems Security Website Lesson 6 - Threats Posed and Rollover Images Practical: Manipulating rollover images using HTML code Theory: Threats posed to computer networks.

Key Stage 3 Computer Science HTML & Dreamweaver Unit Systems Security Website Lesson 5 - Forms of Attack and Images Practical: Manipulating images using HTML code Theory: Forms of Attack

Python Efficiency - Lesson 2 Menu-driven Program Creating a menu using Procedures, Functions and Selection. Menu to perform calculations: Add, subtract, multiply or divide 2 numbers from user input. (Example Python code in text file - simply copy and paste into Python)

Following on from the Python Introduction Unit, this unit will focus on developing more efficient code now that students understand iteration, selection and lists. In this lesson, students look at simple examples in order to understand the difference between procedures and functions. (Included text file with code as Python file cannot be uploaded). Next lessons: Using functions to effectively plan code.

End of term activity comparing Scratch and Python. Lists Sequence Selection User Input Variables Output. Based on the 12 Days of Christmas songs. First 4 days completed in Scratch and Python to give the structure of the code for students to complete the challenge for the other 8 days. A bit of programming fun to end the term. (Python code included in notepad - copy and paste into Python; screenshots of Scratch code, in case the file won't open). Merry Christmas.

End of Unit assessment for Algorithms. Practice: Binary searching Linear searching Bubble Sorting Merge Sorting Lists Merge Sorting Insertion Sorting

How can students prepare for the A267 exam if they don't have a computer at home? Get them to think through the process they would go through in the exam, to complete the A267 exam. Before and after screenshots of tasks in Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Publisher and Access: How did the student get from Point A to Point B. Great for revision, class discussion or home learning.

Preparing for the GCSE Business Communication Systems A267 exam. Students seem to dislike/fear mail merge. I have created this resource to bring the 'fun' element into mail merge, in a way that students will understand how it works. My access file wouldn't upload, so I have exported the database to excel.

A simple resource to revise the key skills required in the A451 Programming unit. Idea of use in lesson: 2 minute madness game - "Explain to the person beside you the items on the memory jogger in 2 minutes". The other person then writes down what they remember. Then you move round one, to the next person, and do the next memory jogger in the pack.

Creating a dinosaur game for Key Stage 2 students. Introducing lists. Re-iterating: User input, sequence, selection and output from previous Times Table game.

After the Introduction of Python unit, I wanted to check my students understood the programming concepts of selection, iteration, variables etc. First they created the quiz in Scratch and then in Python, and compared the two.
