Summary
These resources cover Transmitting Data over six topics plus an end-of-unit assessment. Each of the topics contain enough content for one to two lessons of material in addition to appropriate case studies and scenarios to help demonstrate the use of IT in business and industry. The first two topics consider connectivity and the implications and impact of connection types. The following two topics then look at different types of network and the factors affecting the choice of network. Topic five looks at different protocols and other issues related to the transmission of data. Finally, the final topic covers drawing system diagrams. After the final topic there is an opportunity for students to sit an assessment test comprising questions of a similar style to those found on the BTEC unit 1 exam paper.
