Overview

This series brings a fresh approach to ICT for students from 7 to 14 years old, mapped to the Cambridge ICT Starters syllabus for examination from 2019. The On Track Stage 2 Digital Learner’s Book builds on the skills learnt throughout the series and introduces them to web design, video and animation. They’ll plan a computer network for school and create a game where players look after a virtual pet. Each activity is clearly introduced, with step-by-step guidance to help learners master new skills. Key words and visual examples support students’ understanding, while tip boxes provide helpful suggestions.
