These are first drafts.
Datahandling (databases).
I’m not sure that database/MS Access should really be taught to kids. In business for small non-relational data sets everyone uses Excel. Queries can be done in Excel using Data Filters. Still they need Access type skills for the new KS3 online test and for KS4 so I guess Access it is.
I’ve only got up to level 6 on this sheet. This need to be remedied, as how can you plan for progression if you don’t know what you ultimate ambition is ? (ans. Grade 8 for everyone)
KS 3 Assessment Criteria Datahandling v1
Check out the teach-ict.com sheet for comparision. I’m not sure that I understand it. Is it assessing in 2 dimensions? I guess the a, b, c, d the National Curriculum categories.
