Higher Computing

Welcome to Higher Computing. 

In this section you will be provided with information and resources designed to assist with the Learning and Teaching of Higher Computing.

The main Theory resource we will be using in the coming session has been created by the SoftPlanet Group. This software contains Learning and Teaching materials for all 3 units. Pupils will also be issued with the textbook, Bright Red Computing published by Bright Red Publishing, Edinburgh. Other recommended texts include:

 

  • How to pass Higher Computing - Frame and Mason
  • Practice Papers for SQA Exams - Higher Computing - Leckie and Leckie
  • SQA Past Papers: Higher Computing - Bright Red Publishing
  •  

For the programming section of the course the Higher pupils will be using teacher developed notes devised from LTS TrueBASIC packs written by David Bethune and Allan Patterson respectively. For all other practical aspects of the course, pupils will be presented with tasks and resources developed 'in-house'.

We believe that both the aforementioned resources give all pupils, regardless of learning style, the best possible opportunity to pass Higher Computing.
