This course will enable learners to develop a broad range of skills in the areas of programming, system development, computer architecture, data, communication and applications. The knowledge, understanding and skills are set by different projects, activities and research. There is no hierarchy implied by the order in which content and amplification are presented.
Name: Computer Science Qualification title: GCE AS Level in Computer Science Qualification type: GCE A/AS Level or equivalent Assessment Component 1: Programming and System Development: Written Examination 2 hours 45 minutes- 40% of qualification This component investigates programs, data structures, algorithms, logic, programming methodologies and the impact of computer science on society. Component 2: Computer Architecture, Data, Communication and Applications Written Examination 2 hours 45 minutes - 40% of qualification This component investigates computer architecture, communication, data representation, organisation and structure of data, programs, algorithms and software applications. Component 3: Programmed solution to a problem Non-exam assessment – 20% of qualification This unit requires the learners to investigate, design, prototype, implement, test and evaluate a computer solution to a substantial problem of their choice. The learner’s chosen problem must provide sufficient scope for them to access the marks available for each section of the work. Learners need to investigate their chosen problems in sufficient detail to identify how data is collected, processed and output currently. The current system may be either paper-based or electronic. Candidates must solve the problem using original code (programming). Awarding WJEC (Formerly Welsh Joint Education Committee) Created 20161007 10:40:56 Updated 20161012 13:03:24
