T Level in Digital Production, Design and Development Support
The T Level in Digital Production, Design and Development is the new qualification intended to replace the 3 A level BTEC Extended Diploma in both IT and Computing.
​
This is a brand new qualification and as such, no a textbook has only recently been published (2023) and very few past paper questions exist.
​
As part of my work as a technical author, I have written the T Level teaching materials for www.knowitallninja.com, as well as the Core Area teaching material on this site, and I am completely familiar with the subject material for Core Content Areas 1 - 8.
​
I can also provide detailed specialist Python knowledge for the extra modules that are required for Content Area 2 and the Employer Set Project.
​
I can also provide exam preparation yet, using the different Pearson question marking requirements. I can help to reinforce learning, fill in any knowledge gaps and use existing mark schemes to see where students can maximise their marks.
I can also help with:
-
Program design using the T level Pseudocode.
-
Programming using Python.
-
Programming with the specified Python packages Tkinter, NumPy, Pandas, wxPython, TensorFlow and MatPlotLib.
-
Emerging Issues Theory - including Artificial Intelligence and the Internet of Things.
-
Business Context Theory - including Technical Change Management and Codes of Practice.
-
Understanding Data - including JSON, XML, Data Wrangling, Data Warehousing and the six V's.
-
Digital Environments - including physical, virtual and cloud networks and protocols.
-
Understanding Security - including physical and digital threats and countermeasures.
-
Employer Set Project - including project planning, design, programming and testing including any required documentation.
-
Database programming with SQL.
​
PLEASE NOTE: due to the large number of different suggested programming languages and web development frameworks available for use by schools and colleges in the second year Occupational Specialism, support for this is highly unlikely.
​
A typical session may involve
-
Covering any questions from the student.
-
Identifying common areas of difficulty.
-
Individual activities.
