À propos de la quatrième de couverture

Vocational A-level Information and Communication Technology

Covers OCR, AQA and Edexcel awarding bodies

Vocational A-level Information and Communication Technology has been written by a team of authors who have between them extensive and valuable experience of ICT - in industry, as teachers, examiners, verifiers and as consultants for government organisations such as QCA and FEDA. They are deeply committed to the GNVQ qualification, and, as examiners, know exactly what is expected of students on a Vocational A-level (previously Advanced GNVQ) course.

This book will satisfy the needs of all students following the latest specifications. The seven chapters match the six mandatory units, plus one optional unit - Impact of ICT on Society. Each chapter helps to develop an understanding of ICT and introduces the skills and knowledge needed to go on to work or to further study.

Key Features
· Notes on all topics listed in the 'what you need to know' section of the specification
· Many diagrams and examples, mostly based on case studies
· Exercises to ensure that students have understood what has been covered
· Activities to test students' understanding and to build portfolio evidence
· Revision questions for each chapter
· Special Key Skills icons to show key skills opportunities

Towards the end of the book, there are four guides:
· The Good Working Practice Guide
· The Portfolio Guide
· The Key Skills Guide
· The Examinations Guide
These provide valuable practical advice on how to approach ICT work and the various assessment challenges. A comprehensive index allows easy cross-referencing.

Other books in the series cover the remaining optional units offered by OCR, AQA and Edexcel.

Alongside this Vocational A-level ICT book, Jenny Lawson (Series Editor) has written books for Foundation GNVQ ICT, Intermediate GNVQ ICT, and has overseen the preparation of books to support the optional units at Intermediate GNVQ and Vocational A-level ICT.
