IGCSE ICT Theory Notes
(and mind maps)
|
|
|
The IGCSE ICT theory examination is worth 40% of the total grade.
Use these sets of theory notes to revise the content of the theory examination.
The Mind Maps section will be very useful as a quick reference point to recap the information studied in the theory notes found on this page and within the printed packs I give you in class.
Sections 1 - 8 of this website also contain theory materials which you will find helpful.
|
Word of Warning!!
Don't leave your theory studies until the last minute. The theory test is big.... there will be alot of preperation needed if you are to be successful. |
