This unit of work covers the following teaching objectives. Ensuring that these are met will form part of any medium term assessment and enable targets to be set.
Finding Information
Using data and information sources use information from primary or secondary sources and know when to choose the different types recognise how the content and style of information can influence the message it gives and that data can be distorted and misused justify the use of particular information sources to support an investigation or presentation, and devise and apply criteria to evaluate how well various information types support a task Searching and selecting select information from a range of sources and assess the potential value of the information for a task acknowledge all sources, recognising copyright and other constraints Organising and investigating save files in appropriate formats and create a hierarchical folder structure identify the essential data and ICT tools required to solve a problem develop open and closed questions with sensitivity, recognising people’s cultural, social and ethical differences evaluate different applications in terms of the structure and method of processing data
Developing Ideas
Analysing and automating processes identify the key elements of a problem and represent components in a plan automate simple processes by harnessing software tools; recognise where automation tools, such as filtering, can be used to improve safety when using the internet Sequencing instructions use precision and accurate syntax when framing instructions test and refine sequences in order to achieve specific outcomes recognise that sequencing instructions is fundamental to a wide range of ICT applications
Communicating Information
Fitness for purpose plan communication projects and select the appropriate communication (type, length, media) for the intended audience (considering audience needs and expectations), purpose and environment reflect on the work of others to help plan and amend their communications and understand how effective presentations or publications address specific audience needs and expectations Refining and presenting information draft, refine and structure their work using a combination of ICT tools to convey meaning more effectively modify and develop text, images, tables and sounds from several sources within the structure of a piece of work extract, combine and modify relevant information for a specific purpose, and structure and sequence this to meet audience needs use a range of ICT tools efficiently to refine the presentation of information for a specific purpose Communicating select appropriate methods of exchanging digital information and recognise that the format affects the method of exchange use digital communications for the sharing and collaborative development of ideas for a variety of purposes work in a safe and responsible way when communicating with others
Evaluating
Evaluating work improve the quality of outcomes for specific audiences and purposes by using a range of ICT tools make and use simple success criteria that ensure fitness for purpose gather and use feedback to inform future work
