I have added a few new next step links on the page. If you have any other suggestions please keep them coming in.
Right I have finished and uploaded the last video, well it’s uploading as I type. I will add the videos and code to the previous post in the morning. In the mean time you can watch all these videos on our Higher Computing play list.
Apparently my Christmas coursework posts were not detailed enough. So I “volunteered” to do a more “live” version. I have had to split this into sections, however, because of the speed of my computer (or rather its connection to the server) I have only got the 1st and 2nd parts done. I will complete the others from home the image below should explain my problem. (I need to wait for 3 hour while the software compiles 15 minutes of typing into a slide show)
The class will be working on this for the next two weeks. Continue reading 2013 Coursework
Would you look at that! I have placed a count down timer on the blog. 99 days for 3 units, that’s 33 hours of revision per unit (assuming 1 hour per day). That’s enough time to read all the supplied notes at least once over and complete study notes from them, as well as doing many past papers, you’ll find these in the SQA publications section above.
In all seriousness, as I am sure you gathered from today’s assembly, the time has come to dig out the books and stop taking the extra hours in the part time jobs. You get one shot at 5th year higher exams and you don’t want to be resitting next year.
Make a study plan, there are plenty of tools to help you on the web and even some apps. Once you have the plan, stick to it.
I would like to apologise to Katie, she was looking at the sequence of posts on the 2011 coursework and became confused with the “Short” data type. At the time I wrote the solution for the 2011 coursework we were using VB6, this uses the Integer data type to store whole numbers. When I created the articles in December, I opened up the original project using VB2008EE to capture the screen grabs. The import wizard unbeknownst to me had changed the data type to short. I should have noticed it but I missed it, sorry.
I’ll let the MS help do the explaining after the break.
Head on over to scratch and if you set yourself up with an account you can download the sampler.
It wont let me embed the program in this post, which is annoying and I will keep at it. You’ll find the scripts after the break.
I set Google to track our blog visitors, I thought it was worth sharing the map with you as we are covering networks at the moment.
As you can see from the map above, our blog has attracted visitors not just from Scotland but from most of the continents (no tracking data for Antarctica). This goes to show how the Internet is truly global and even posts to a small school blog can get picked up anywhere. This will partly form our discussion for network implications next week.
These are the notes I plan to use in class tomorrow. Continue reading Using Networks
