Lesson plan introducing HTML and use of layers, tables and templates.
Key Concept - linking together Computer Science, Digital Literacy and Programming.
This Unit combines 3 key elements of the new KS3 computing element:
Computer Science (Systems Security)
Digital Literacy (Dreamweaver - Building websites)
Programming - Introduction to HTML
Main focus of unit on the 'Design' screen in Dreamweaver with altering properties in HTML.
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.
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.
Suitable for GCSE Business revision (A293)
BTEC Business Finance
LAB2 Cash Flow & Budgeting
Worksheet 5 Completing & Analysing a cash flow forecast.
Activity
Teacher solution
Model used for controlled assessments.
Used with students midway through OCR 20 Programming Challenges, to get Year 10 students to reflect and focus on the different stages in the Programming Cycle of Assessment and the importance.
Class discussion of each stage, followed by students explaining and evidencing each stage.
This enables them to work at a higher level and to understand the process required in September.
Developed specifically for the BTEC Business - Unit 2 Business Finance Exam.
Based directly on the BTEC Syllabus, it covers each element in bitesize chucks.
A simple resource that can be used for independent revision, peer-to-peer Q&A and mix n’ match tasks.
Golden Nugget Technique:
Read a golden nugget.
Read it again.
Look away - what can you remember?
Read it again - what did you forget?
Read it again.
Look away - have you remembered it yet?
Repeat this process and learn the theory in little bitesize chunks
Feedback from Parents Evening: “My child brought these home for revision. Even though I don’t understand the theory, I have the answers in front of me. I ask for a definition and compare his answers to those on the Golden Nugget. I can even give prompts because all the answers are there.”
Using musical instruments in class for the ‘beat’, I have created a summary revision lesson on the main content for the Unit 2 online Business Finance exam.
With definitions, examples and some common points that may be useful in the ‘explain’ questions, this is a final revision before mock practice (prior to the exam).
Thanks for taking an interest in this resource.
I hope it helps if you purchase it.
Scratch Christmas Story
Scratch activity designed for Year 3 & 4 to introduce the concept of coding using blocks.
Used Scratch 2 offline editor (Scratch.mtu)
Program files can only be opened in Scratch, however the powerpoint instructions have all the required code in should you wish to use the online version.
In the OCR GCSE Computer Science 9-1 Paper 2 2018, the paper started with an SQL question. Of all the questions in Paper 2, this is the one that they struggled with.
In this bundle are previous resources for the GCSE Computing course which are relevant, and newly created resources for the GCSE Computer Science 9-1 course.
