The Advanced Subsidiary (AS) GCE is both a ‘stand-alone’ qualification and also the first half of the corresponding Advanced GCE. The AS GCE is assessed at a standard appropriate for candidates who have completed the first year of study (both in terms of teaching time and content) of the corresponding two-year Advanced GCE course, i.e. between GCSE and Advanced GCE. The AS GCE (as of September 2013) is made up of two mandatory units, which form 50% of the corresponding four-unit Advanced GCE. AS Unit G061 is externally assessed, and AS Unit G062 is internally assessed through coursework. The aims of these specifications are to encourage candidates to develop: • the capacity to think creatively, innovatively, analytically, logically and critically; • the skills to work collaboratively; • the ability to apply skills, knowledge and understanding of ICT in a range of contexts to solve problems; • an understanding of the consequences of using ICT on individuals, organisations and society and of social, legal, ethical and other considerations on the use of ICT; • an awareness of emerging technologies and an appreciation of the potential impact these may have on individuals, organisations and society.
