Thank you, Paul. I like them too. It's the students that don't.

Hi Claudia,

when I do the programming and scripting component in Unit 2, I do a bit
on Algorithms.

I have attached two worksheets you may find useful.

(Personally I like Algorithms)

Morning all,

 

My students are still struggling with the 'algorithm' type questions on
past papers. Finding errors is difficult for them and most seem to find
the whole idea of desk checking a foreign language! (even though this
would assist in finding the error!!)

 

Does anyone have any revision sheets or pp or similar that they would be
happy to share on these topics?

 

Thanks in advance

Claudia
