BTEC TA DIT C3 - D1 Forms of Notation

(0)
A crucial unit that completes the Component 3 content for the January 2020 exam and will provide the higher-order thinking for L2M/L2D. This unit looks at the different forms of notation, with examples of each form of notation required for the exam - skills needed: how business use them, how to interpret them and how to present them.

BTEC TA DIT Component 2 LAA Theory & LAB Spreadsheet Skills

(1)
I have trialled the teaching of BTEC TA Digital Information Technology during 2017/2018 and have produced the attached ‘placemats’ to ensure that students understand the key skills required for LAB/C and the knowledge required for the research task in Component A. Either print double-sided, laminate or simply display/view on screen. On side A is the LAA theory looking at sectors of industry. On side B is the LAB/C skills in Excel. I have used them laminated, 1 between 2 and supported the Excel element with short tasks that teach students the skills as listed in the specification. I hope these can be of help to you and your students. Thanks for taking an interest in this resource.

With Computing, students come with a varying degrees of experience from primary so we have selected an ICT skill which all should be able to demonstrate skills so we can get an initial picture. The structure of the test is based on the KS4 model which I am introducing from the outset in KS3 as 'Computing de Facto standards'.

Help your students learn those little facts that will gain the identify or state questions in the GCSE Computer Science 9-1 exams. Little nuggets of revision - “cut-out and stick on this fridge/mirror or anywhere in the house where you’ll see it.” I have now created these for all the topics in Component 1 & Component 2, and have put them in a bundle. As I create revision resources, I will also create more bundles to help students prepare for the exam. If you liked this resource, there are more like it available for a small fee: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/gcse-computer-science-9-1-revision-11840640
