This Sample shows One module from the full course and is designed to give you a flavour of the Wolsey Hall approach to home study.
Welcome to your Wolsey Hall Part 3 Computing course!
How does a computer work? How are the games we play and the apps we use written? What language does a computer speak? How are websites developed? How can we use spreadsheets and databases?
On this course you will further develop these skills, moving them along to the next level of understanding. You will learn about computational thinking and how to apply it to real world problems, learn about the central processing unit, how data is handled and stored by computers, refine your programming skills and learn to use some common software.
This course will help you further develop your computing skills for work when you are grown up, and for progressing onto IGCSE computing, but even if you only use computers for fun you can learn to use them creatively. Using the Hodder International Computing Stage 9 and Adventure Games in Python coursebooks, and a range of other resources – web pages, videos, activities and quizzes – you will explore a whole host of topics.
