Level 3

The use of ICT to
develop ideas and solve problems.
For example:
- find
and use appropriate stored information, following straightforward
lines of enquiry
- explore ICT-based
models or simulations to help them find things out and solve
problems
-
generate and amend
work
- create sequences
of instructions to control devices and achieve specific outcomes
|
Level
4

The ability to
combine and refine information from various sources.
For example:
- find and
interrogate information, understanding the need for care in framing
questions
- amend and
combine different forms of information from a variety of sources
- generate and
amend work
- explore patterns
and relationships using ICT-based models and simulations. They
interpret their findings, question plausibility and recognise that
poor-quality information leads to unreliable results
- control events
in a predetermined manner and to sense physical data
- present
information in different forms. They refine the quality of their
presentations showing an awareness of the intended audience
- compare their
use of ICT with other methods

Level

Combining the use
of ICT tools within the
overall structure of an ICT solution. Pupils critical evaluate the
fitness for purpose of work as it progresses.
For example:
- select the
information they need for different purposes, check its accuracy and
organise it in a form suitable for processing. An increased range of
quantitative and qualitative information is considered
- structure and
refine information in different forms and styles for specific
purposes and audiences
- explore the
effects of changing the variables in an ICT-based model
- create sequences
of instructions to control events, and understand the need for
precision
- monitor and
measure external events with sensors
- assess the use
of ICT in their work and are able to reflect critically in order to
make improvements in subsequent work
