This series of workbooks will cover networks and some other associated with it. The breakdown is as follows: CS17 - Types of networks (LAN, WAN, Client-server, Peer-to-Peer) CS18 - Network hardware CS19 - The internet (inc. Cloud storage and DNS) CS20 - Network topologies (Star/Mesh and Virtual networks) CS21 - Network protocols (Including layers) CS22 - Social engineering (Blagging, Phishing and Shoulder-surfing) CS23 - Malware (Different types and prevention strategies) CS24 - Network security (Brute-force, DDOS, Packet sniffers and prevention stategies (e.g. policies, penetration testing etc…) CS25 - SQL & Data Structures (How to write SQL, SQL injection and prevention strategies) CS26 - Defensive design (Authentication methods and Validation methods - how to add defensive design to your code) CS27 - Testing (What is testing, why is it important?, Final/iterative, test data) Each set includes a teacher and student version. The rest will be part of a bundle.

I’ve been working on creating a series of workbooks for GCSE Computer Science. The first block is all about ‘understanding the machine’ and consists of the following topics: CS1 - Boolean Logic (2.4) CS2 - Von Neumann Architecture (1.1) CS3 - Low-level languages (1.1/2.5) CS4 - Data storage (Numbers) (1.2) CS5 - Data storage (Characters) (1.2) CS6 - Data storage (Images) (1.2) CS7 - Data storage (Sound) (1.2) CS8 - Data storage (Compression) (1.2) There is a teacher version and student version. They’re very versatile, they could be used as a revision activity, good for differentiation, build on from flipped learning or a good remote learning activity - these workbooks have worked well for my students during lockdown/closures.
