A small selection of the resources I am developing to help my students improve their confidence in key terminology for Component 2, which based on mock results, was their weaker paper. Get Going Glossary - checking their understanding of key terminology. Fast Five - Quick questions on data rep/algorithms/logic/simple algorithms. DTT - Diagnosis following practice papers. Terminal Ten - MCQs and a QWC question. I am developing these resources as I teach my Year 11s, and over will upload the sets of resources in due course.

I have created this marking grid to use with the OCR Computer Science 9-1 June 2018 papers. When marking the mock exams for my Year 11, if they show some knowledge of the topic, I will put the marks awarded in the ‘Knowledge demonstrated’ column, whereas if they get low or 0 marks, I will put the mark in the ‘Area for further revision’ column. This way, when students receive their feedback, they can target revision at their weaker areas prior to re-testing. I hope it can be of use. Thanks for taking an interest in this resource.

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.

Each method is illustrated through worked examples and tips on how to search/sort with three practice questions that students can work on independently. In my lessons, I will have a folder with the solutions in so that students can self-mark once they have completed the activity. To follow shortly: Let’s Do It Activities for Translators & Language Facilitators.

This resource has been developed based on student feedback from the Paper 2 2018 and the Paper 2 Examiner Report extract: “Candidates who did well on this paper generally… Understood the use of SQL and wildcards.” This resource provides: Syntax, example for a fruitShop table and practice with a bakery table.
