This is over 40 hours worth of content and lessons that provides an ideal starting point for your T-Level Digital Software Development journey. These cover Computational Thinking and Python Programming and focus on giving a holistic picture. Also included are more than 50 Python exercises and examples. Built with five years of experience of teaching T-levels and a lot longer teaching programming and computing, this has been updated for the new T-Level DSD 2025 spec. These lessons collectively should cover all of Core 1 and 2. Each Lesson is around 1.5 hours of content- some groups may get through them quicker, some slower. Where needed intersperse the lessons with more practical implementation using examples from the accompanying Python work book or some of the retrieval practice activities. You can also use projects as and when needed- AI tools are perfect for generating these project brief or look at previous ESP tasks- these have idea examples of practicing some of the elements of testing, file handling, validation and more.

This lesson is focused on students being able to compare the uses of different types of software, and how they are beneficial in a business setting. Included: PPT Worksheet Starter activity

This Word table introduces students to Open Source software and asks why schools are still prepared to pay for commercial software? It is useful for familiarising students and teachers to software types, what is available for free and what benefits a school gets from commercial software.

A 3-lesson unit encompassing the distinctions between Application, Utility and System software, with reference to development of real world indie games. PowerPoints, worksheets and lesson plans provided. In the final lesson, students will be expected to use an industry style timescale to create a Knowledge Demo PowerPoint. Outcomes: To be able to classify by application, system and utility software. To discern the terms App and Application and the differences between the two. To understand the need for, uses of and interrelationship between system software and utilities. To understand the OS’ role in managing processors, memory, IO devices, applications and security.

Previously downloaded over 13,000 times, these four worksheets are an excellent introduction to Audacity. Audacity is a free program used to edit sounds for use as: ring tones, sound effects, backing tracks or spoken text. Each worksheet is very visual, providing a clear set of instruction on how to import, cut, mix and add effects to sound files. Some copyright free sounds are supplied for use with the unit of work. This resource was previously rated 4.9 from 20 ratings. Comments are shown below: "Brilliant set of materials, great design, so useful. Excellent, thank you." "How good does it feel when you find the PERFECT resource for what you want to do?! I'm doing Entry Pathway ICT with SEN pupils, we're going to make podcasts, but first I need to teach them how to use Audacity. This is wonderful, thanks" (Greg Reid has written two Computing text books for the Scottish education system. His resources are used in thousands of schools all over the world.)

A year 10 resource I created as part 1 of 3 lessons on Applications, Systems and Utilities. This lesson covers the outcomes and LOs below using identification, description and industry connected content. Outcomes: • To be able to classify by application and system software. Most students: • To discern applications from apps and to explain the difference. Some students: • To understand the interrelationship, particularly between system software and utilities. Learning Objectives: • Pupils to gain understanding of the software used in game development through listing and teacher-led discussion. • Pupils to distinguish between apps and applications through identification exercises, which also draw on literacy skills. • Pupils to develop ability to identify examples of the three categories of software. PowerPoint, resources and lesson plan template included.

This resource introduces learners to microsoft excel and what it is used for. It starts off with basics and shows cells, columns and rows and how these are identified and accessed. It engages learners with this through the use of games e.g. -cell art where they have to fill the cell with the correct colour and make the picture. -cell mine field which they play with a partner (like battleships) cell bingo (there is a linked spinning wheel with all cells ref) Finally it leads children up to a mini project where they plan and budget a dinner for their family. They can use the internet or magazines to get prices or simply make them up. They must record their costs, quantities etc on their spreadsheet. For more challenge, I introduced more confident learners with simple formulas to calculate their totals.

Students will use self marking worksheets to learn to create their own formulae and understand why they should use formulae. Included are tasks that cater for the lower ability, middle ability and higher ability students. Learning pitstops and challenges are provided to check students understanding and learning of the spreadsheet skills needed for the exam. The functions and formula that students will learn include, SUM, AVERAGE, MAX, IF, COUNTIF, =TODAY(), =NOW(), sorting data, absolute cell referencing, * multiplication, + addition and, autosum. Students will have the chance to practise all the skills using the practice skills 1 and 2.xls included in the resources. These are self marking (they have been adapted to suit the needs of my students) so students can work independently. This allows me to provide small group intervention sessions if necessary for the skills that the students struggle with.

This 18 page resource is an extract from a Functioal Skills ICT Level 2 Activity Workbook (by the same author) and covers software applications, using nterface features and adjusting system settings.
