The Most Detailed Yet Concise Summary Of OCR A Level Computer Science: 1.4.1 Data Types

As Salamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh World!

The first of 3 summary presentations for section 1.4 is on data types. I know I've already shared tons of resources on this topic not made by me (primarily on binary) but this resource gives a general gist of the topic as a whole. 

Being a mathematical topic, it obviously needs practice to learn so i'm planning on making a resource full of exercises with model answers on it InShaAllah. But until then, you can always have a go at the other practical resources on binary here.

The Most Detailed Yet Concise Summary Of OCR A Level Computer Science: 1.3.4 Web Technologies

As Salamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh World!

Here's the last of 4 presentations for section 1.3. It's only 10 slides long and is the 11th in this series. In other news, i'm working on version 5.0 of The Ultimate OCR A Level Computer Science Dictionary which should come out after I've posted all the Component 1 summary presentations for this series InShaAllah.

The Most Detailed Yet Concise Summary Of OCR A Level Computer Science: 1.3.3 Networks

As Salamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh World!

10 summary presentations down, 11 to go. Today's resource is on section 1.3.3 of the OCR spec and is 19 slides long. This presentation also marks the halfway point in this series as far as the examined components are concerned. Anyway, that brings the total number of slides in this series to 130 which is 37 slides less than version 4.0 of the Ultimate OCR A level Computer Science Dictionary.

The Most Detailed Yet Concise Summary Of OCR A Level Computer Science: 1.3.2 Databases

As Salamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh World!

Summary presentation number 9 is on databases and is only 17 slides. It's a bit longer than yesterday's one but since this topic is longer it had to have more slides. I've also realised section 2.1 (mostly due to it's annoyingly vague points) can be done in one presentation.

That basically means that the total number of presentations is going to be broken down like this:

  • Component 1: 16 presentations
  • Component 2: 4 presentations
  • Component 3: 1 presentation
Which brings the total to 21 instead of the original 25.

Hope this helps!

The Most Detailed Yet Concise Summary Of OCR A Level Computer Science: 1.3.1 Compression, Encryption & Hashing

As Salamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh World!

Here's the 8th summary presentation of this series which covers the first part of section 1.3. It's a relatively short one with only 9 slides but is packed with all the content you need to know for this topic.

I should also mention (since I don't I have already) that slides with a red border indicate that the content on the slide is for A level only - so if you're doing AS currently, you don't need to know it (not at least until next year anyway).  

NB since I used some unorthodox fonts in these presentations I've realised they show up differently when viewing the presentations in Google Drive so you have to download them otherwise you'll miss some content.

Road To 200 OCR A Level Computer Science Resources: Linked Lists Presentation

As Salamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh World!

It's finally done, the road has ended and the target has been reached. The 200th resource on this blog may not be the best one, but it's definitely one of significance as it marks the end of a very long series indeed.

I've completed the summary presentations for Component 1 which I can finally start sharing from tomorrow InShaAllah. I don't know when I'll make another big list for these so don't ask me.
