This series brings a fresh approach to ICT for students from 7 to 14 years old, mapped to the Cambridge ICT Starters syllabus for examination from 2019. On Track builds on the skills learnt throughout the series and introduces them to web design, video and animation. They’ll plan a computer network for school and create a game where players look after a virtual pet. Each activity is clearly introduced, with step-by-step guidance to help learners master new skills. Key words and visual examples support students’ understanding, while tip boxes provide helpful suggestions. Download source files for activities from our website.
