Upgrades

Tired of throwing away course text-books whenever the syllabus changes? These materials come with the guarantee that any new edition will be offered to existing customers at a significant discount or even free. Check the Uprades section to see what this actually means.

AQA AS Level ICT

A single CD containing notes for the Info1 and Info2 AS units. Includes separate Teacher's answer booklet. (Notes for AQA A2 are not yet available.)

OCR AS and A2 Level ICT

Two CDs are available, one for the AS unit G061 and a second for the A2 unit G063. Each comes complete with a Teacher's answer booklet.

Databases

Two CDs cover the use of databases for post-16 advanced course work. Relational Database Design and Implementation covers the principles of relational database design and the use of Access for A-level and other advanced work. The companion Database Solutions provides a network resource designed to take some of the stress out of practical lessons by dealing with some common problems and providing a starting point for a number of project ideas.

Technical Terms for ICT and Computing

An interactive dictionary of some common ICT/Computing terms, phrases and concepts. Each entry consists of a definition followed by a more detailed explanation and the majority of entries include either an animation to provide further illustration or a game, quiz or test to further test and develop understanding. This resource is intended for use either as a whole-class introduction or plenary in conjuction with an interactive whiteboard. It is equally suitable for individual students to use for research or revision. In addition to installing the materials on a network, your licence allows you to burn copies of the CD to supply to individual students.
