  • Identify common file extensions and match each to its file type (document, spreadsheet, image, audio, video, executable)

  • Demonstrate correct startup, shutdown, and safe USB removal procedure on a real or simulated machine

Your checkpoint

A one-page labelled hardware diagram plus a 20-item device classification table scored at 90% or better on self-check

Week 2

Office Productivity Tools (Word Processing, Spreadsheet, Presentation)

  • Apply character and paragraph formatting (font, size, bold, alignment, line spacing, indents) to produce a formatted two-page document

  • Insert and format a table with merged cells, and add page numbers, headers, and footers

  • Use spelling/grammar check, find-and-replace, and track changes to edit a draft

  • Build a spreadsheet with at least 30 rows using SUM, AVERAGE, MIN, MAX, and COUNT

  • Write IF and COUNTIF formulas and create a chart from selected data

Your checkpoint

A formatted report document (with table, header, footer) plus a spreadsheet workbook containing five functions and one chart

Week 3

Office Productivity Tools (Word Processing, Spreadsheet, Presentation)

  • Sort and filter a dataset on two or more criteria and apply conditional formatting rules

  • Create a presentation of 8-10 slides applying a consistent theme, slide master, and readable font hierarchy

  • Add transitions and at least three animation types, and insert an image and a chart into slides

  • Use relative vs absolute cell references correctly in three worked examples

  • Print-preview and set page orientation, margins, and print area for both a document and a spreadsheet

Your checkpoint

A 10-slide presentation on a work-related topic saved as both editable file and PDF, plus a printed-layout spreadsheet

Week 4

Internet, Web Technologies and Digital Communication

  • Explain how a URL is structured (protocol, domain, path) and identify each part in 10 sample addresses

  • Distinguish browser, search engine, website, and web page, and run three advanced search queries using operators

  • Configure and describe email fields (To, Cc, Bcc, Subject, Attachment) and compose a professional email with attachment

  • List at least five netiquette rules and apply them to rewrite three poorly written messages

Your checkpoint

A netiquette and cyber-safety one-pager plus three rewritten professional emails graded against a self-made checklist

Week 5

Database Management Systems and Data Handling

  • Define database, table, record, field, and primary key, and identify each in a sample dataset

  • Create a table with appropriate data types and enter at least 25 records

  • Write SELECT queries using WHERE, ORDER BY, and comparison operators

  • Use aggregate functions (COUNT, SUM, AVG) with GROUP BY on the sample table

  • Explain the purpose of a relational link between two tables and sketch a two-table design

Your checkpoint

Week 6

Programming Fundamentals and Software Development

  • Describe the IPO (input-process-output) model and identify each stage for three everyday programs

  • Write and explain algorithms and flowcharts for three simple problems using standard symbols

  • Declare variables of different data types and write assignment and arithmetic statements

  • Write programs using sequence, selection (if-else), and iteration (loop) constructs
