Practical IT skills are a vital part of our IT syllabuses. We assess these skills through formal tests under controlled conditions. To maintain the integrity of the tests, and the value of our qualifications for students, we encourage centres to teach the full syllabus content, whether remotely or face to face. There are currently no adaptations to the practical skills requirements for March or June 2021. However, we understand that candidates do not always have access to proprietary (non-free) software that is licensed through their centre. This may be a significant barrier to candidates practising practical IT skills at home. Using the centre’s licensed software Where candidates are learning remotely, we recommend that you first check your software licences to see if they If your school currently uses proprietary software, you allow candidates to use the software on their home may find that one of the free/open source alternatives computers.

Especially in the higher education sector, IT is playing a vital role in the advancement of teaching and learning practices. Most of the educational organizations have already adopted smart learning environment by upgrading their infrastructure and with proper capacity building among staff members. But in the education sector, sustainability of technology is always being a challenge. To develop learning materials, many institutions have already started using free and open source software (FOSS) tools. FOSS gives freedom to the developer with the provision of various customization options as per the requirements of the class or subject. Moreover, in the longer run, free and open source software could be considered as the best option in education for e-learning implementation, for sustainability. There are many tools which are available for e-learning resource development. Some of them are available online and some are available as an installer for the various platform. In order to adapt ICT in education, especially in non-IT specialization, the faculty members need the training to learn and implement these tools in their classes.

  • Animate with Easy-To-Use and Free Pencil2d Software
    White Paper Animate with Easy-to-Use and Free Pencil2D Software Use Pencil2D to quickly create animated videos Summary: There are many 2D animation products available. Some are complicated and have GUIs that are crowded with dozens of tiny items that require training for even basic operations. Also, some products are expensive. In contrast, Pencil2D is simple yet highly capable. It enables users to complete all animation steps, including sketching, drawing line art, and painting, and do so in an easy and straightforward way. Additionally, it is free, open source, and cross-platform. These are some of the reasons why it meets the needs of many users in its well-established and active user community. White Paper Introduction There are numerous software products available for creating 2D animation. However, some of these products are complicated to use and have GUIs that are crowded with an overwhelming number of small tools, icons, controls, options, settings, and labels. Attempting to perform even basic operations in these applications can be frustrating and require a significant amount of training. Also, some of these products are expensive, costing hundreds of dollars a year. Pencil2D is an alternative to these types of products, since it is simple, easy-to-use, free, and open source. With Pencil2D you are able to focus on creating great animation instead of trying to figure out how to use a tool. Also, Pencil2D is highly capable, so you can use it for all animation steps, including sketching, drawing line art, and painting.

It is an art form in which a world of dynamic image and sound may be synthesised completely out of nothing but a thought. Animation is 100% artifice, and as such, the synthesis of movement through the sequential use of small fragments of time, which gives rise to this wondrous illusion, is open to manipulation in extraordinary ways. Animation has the capacity to entertain, exaggerate, simplify, abstract, reveal complex processes, clarify difficult-to- understand concepts, visualise data, be a vehicle for humorous writing, sell product, be an art form, create slapstick sight gags, be a vehicle for insightful social comment, portray the human condition, and tackle difficult and uncomfortable subject manner. 3 Animation of shape and weight in falling Objects by a simple method 4 2 6/6/2017 SOFTWARES 1.
