How a lesson works

Explain it, let them try it, check they got it.

Animated scenes

Every idea is built step by step on screen. Play, pause, go back: you set the pace of the explanation.

Try-it simulations

Students drag, click and test: scan a real QR code, build a network, spot a phishing email, run the CPU cycle.

A check after every section

Short auto-marked questions straight after each idea, so misunderstandings surface before they settle.

Exam-style tests

End-of-part tests with written answers and mark schemes, and a “Copy my results” button to send to you.

Made for the projector

Projector mode and full screen for the whole class; the same lesson works on student laptops and tablets.

Progress that is kept

Progress saves on each device and moves between devices with a progress code. Reset it whenever you like.

12 months from the day you pay. It never renews automatically: you can see the end date in My access and renew whenever you like, adding another 12 months.

Can I buy only one unit?

Yes. Buy the units you teach, or the full pack with all five units for less than the units bought separately.

Which devices does it work on?

Computers and tablets with an up-to-date browser, and any classroom projector. Nothing to install.

Can I try it first?

Yes. Two complete sections are free to try, with no account needed.

Is it the official Pearson course?
