Edexcel GCSE ICT Theory Mind Maps
These resources are summary mind maps that can be used in isolation at the end of a topic or as a revision tool at the end of a course. They can be used appropriately as formative or summative activities.
Each mind map has associated past paper questions and questions taken from, or inspired by the course workbooks and revision guide. I have confirmed with Pearson that i have permission to share these resources with other teachers and students.
The topics include: Personal Digital Devices, Connectivity, Operating Online, Online Communities, Online Goods and Services & Issues.
I tend to use these resources for group work tasks where students get a series of points for the methods that they have used to work out the answers.
Please note that these resource do not have the questions attached that feature in the other, similarly named document that I have uploaded here. They are stored in the form of a jpg.

BBC Micro:bit (Microbit) lessons
I have been using these lessons challenges with a series of groups and they appear to have been really well received.
Like many professionals, I have been trying to get to grips with the Micro:bit and find resources or lessons for my students to have a go at. There are loads around and this is a collection of progressive tasks that I think have been put together in a really coherent way for the teenage mind. Each one is a video tutorial which will guide your students through each step and provide them with the theory behind each decision made in the program.
I would love to know your thoughts and I will add more, as and when they arrive.
I have used this resource over three lessons... a great filler once the students get to grips with it.
This also now includes a Python activity as well as Block Editor challenges.
in terms of assessment and monitoring progress... I have been keeping a very simple spreadsheet and inputting when the student has been to show me their finished task - this means that I can open a dialogue with the student and find out what they found easy/difficult with the task, as well as being able to redirect them onto another task or target misconceptions.
