SCHEMES OF WORK

NAME: MR ZARANYIKA

SUBJECT: COMP SCIENCE

CLASS: LOWER SIX

2020
SYLLABUS AIMS:

The aims are to enable pupils to develop:

• To develop computational thinking

• To develop an understanding of the main principles of solving problems using computers
• To develop an understanding that every computer system is made up of subsystems, which in
turn consist of further subsystems
• to develop an understanding of the component parts of computer systems and how they
interrelate, including software, data, hardware, communications and people
• To acquire the skills necessary to apply this understanding to develop computer-based
solutions to problems.
ASSESSMENT OBJECTIVES

Cambridge International AS and A Level Computer Science has two assessment

objectives:
AO1 Knowledge with understanding
• show understanding of the characteristics and methods of operation of component parts of
computer systems (hardware, software, communication) and their subsystems
• describe, explain and use various different methods of representing data for use in computer
systems
• Comment critically on ethical issues arising from the use of computer solutions.
AO2 Skills
• apply knowledge with understanding to computational problems
• select, justify and apply appropriate techniques and principles to develop data structures and
algorithms for the solutions of computational problems
• design, implement, document and evaluate an effective solution using appropriate hardware,
software and programming languages.
