AQA past papers
Past papers. Not as useful as the Psionica database AQA shamefully closed
but...
Practice questions
Past paper practice questions for 13.9 (.rtf file - opens in Word/Writer)
suitable for revision/homework etc. etc.
Past paper answers
Answers to the questions above. Password protected .doc file. Sorry but
the password is only available to teachers.
Older Exam Papers
Past papers (pre 2000) not included on the official AQA site from
Colchester VI Form College. These still contain some relevant questions
for this topic. Look for IT04/ICT4 papers. I think this is dead??? Try
this
instead.

Links to general online
resources for 13.9. I'd recommend right clicking links/icons and "Save
Target As..." for anything other than web pages (see key below)

VERY important exam advice from AQA about
difference between codes of practice/conduct. Make sure you read this as
some textbooks/websites don't differentiate.

BCS Code of Conduct |
British Computer Society is the association
of IT professionals in the UK so their code of conduct is about as good
as it gets as an example.

Not sure where this originally came from???
It might have been lifted shamelessly from the KJS site?
|

conduct from the David
Yates of KJS fame. This is a useful general resource for planning your revision.
