Does AS or A2 ICT involve writing programs (coding)?
No. This course is about how ICT is used in commerce, industry and society as a whole. A lot of design is involved, but only in terms of designing presentations, web sites, databases and solutions to specific problems using generic applications software. The AS Computing course that we have begun teaching this academic year certainly does involve coding. You have to be a logical thinker and be comfortable with using mathematics to get the most out of the course.
