An introductory presentation and worksheet (with answers!) that can be used for GCSE students or, likely, A-level students.

A full set of resources for a lesson around screentime. Covers identifying habits and behaviours (e.g., excessive screen time or video game usage) that can be detrimental to health, and explain how people can be encouraged to adopt healthier alternatives. Resources include: Discussions Brainstorming Collages Track your screen time

Dijkstra’s Algorithm The way I would run this is to talk through the motivation for the algorithm from the presentation, and give the terminology worksheet to be filled in (answer in the presentation). We’d then work through the brute force worksheet. I might then run through the example, then give them the simple graph to fill in. Than we would work through TaskGraph1 for the graphs. Then I might get them to either code, or come up with graphs for them to solve in small groups or in pairs. Included: TPT presentation Labels to fill in worksheets to give structure for the students to fill in answers TaskGraph1 3 graphs to run Dijkstras on. AnswerGraph1 and 2 -answers for the graphs Brute force worksheet and brute force worksheet answers

A full lesson for Binary search. The intention is for you to run through the presentation with the basics of the algorithm. The resources are not language dependent (although the coding challenge does have a solution in Python, this is easily changed to your language of choice) Students then have arrows cut out of ArrowsActivityResources.docx and record the algorithm stepping through numbers.docx The students then optionally step through NamesToSearch.docx Students then code TaskPseudocodeGuessingGame.doc Then students should be able to code the binary search algorithm!

Students can discover more about famous computer scientists in a fun and interactive way. Zero preparation for the teacher! From Steve Jobs to Tim Berners-Lee there are many famous computer scientists. But how many do your students know? Students respond to open-ended questions in this nicely presented resource. Two suggestions for delivery: 1. Give all of the students the same computer scientist. Maximum 10 minutes for each. Who can go through the set fastest? 2. Give different groups different computer scientists. Then present.

Tried and tested quicksort resources. Do not depend on any particular language, here is a presentation to help a teacher deliver the content along with worksheets.
