FORM 2 TERM 2 SCHEMES OF WORK

TERMLY AIMS

The scheme will enable learners to:

 Appreciate the organisation of computer systems

 Demonstrate an understanding of the issues surrounding the development and use of information
communication technologies (ICTs).
 Develop programming and analysis skills through system development.
 Foster a culture of innovative thinking for socio- economic development

Objectives

By the end of the term learners should be able to:

 use computers sensibly to generate, implement and document solutions appropriately

 demonstrate the techniques used to solve real life problems
 demonstrate proficiency in the creation, design and implementation of computer solutions using
programming packages
 conduct research using the internet

Theory Topics
 Communications networks and internet technologies
 Data representations

Practical Topics

 Database
 Programming
Crosscutting themes

 HIV and AIDS

 Guidance and counselling
 Heritage studies
 Human Rights and Responsibilities
 Child Protection
 Gender
 Environmental issues
 Financial literacy
 Collaboration

Methodology

 The teaching and learning of Computer Science is based on a learner-centred approach. The following
methods are recommended:
 • Problem solving
 • E-learning
 • Multi-media
 • Simulation and modelling
 • Discovery
 • Experimentation
 • Design based learning
 • Project-based learning
 • Question and answer
 • Demonstrations
 • Discussion
 • Educational Tours
 • Research and Presentations
 • Expert guest presentations

Time Allocation

 The subject should be allocated at least 6 periods of 35 – 40 minutes per week. At least 2 of the periods
should be devoted to theory and 4 of the periods to practical work
Aim: To enable learners to develop programming and analysis skills through system development
