Many thanks to Julia Stevens for kindly contributing these superb resources

AS  
Serial, sequential and hashing file access

This excellent resource was kindly contributed by Julia to help cover section 514b in the 2512 OCR ICT section.

It is a theory based activity that introduces the concept of the difference between the different methods of access to students. You can then go on to explain the applications.

 
Entity Identity

This activity provides a very gentle introduction to entities and ERD.

 
Real Relationships

An activity to encourage students to think about the different types of database relationships.

 
Resolving Relationships

This activity provides students with a set of example relationships which are set up as 'many to many'.

Their task is to try to resolve the relationships correctly and in so doing, gain a better understanding of this skill.

 
Operating System Wipeout

A useful activity to give to students either at AS level or even GCSE.

They need to identify which are and which aren't tasks of the operating system.

This could be done as a class activity using the whiteboard for a starter/plenary.
